There are two sentences: "He stayed at a luxury hotel." and "They live in a luxurious 30-room villa." Is there any rule of thumb to choose the right adjective?

You can change the word "preposit​ion" in your original post to the correct word "adjective" by clicking "Edit Post" and then making the changes. Then hit Save.

nordway, please note that you can edit your post by using the Edit Post feature.

Try it now. In post #1, click on 'Edit Post', change the last word to 'adjective' and then click 'Save'.

Now do the same with #2, but this time see if you can figure out how to delete it.

You don't need to give a reason for editing or deleting your posts.

Please note also that '(((' is not an acceptable punctuation mark.
