    Adjectives for Writers

    While there are a number of reasons you may want to create random adjectives, one of the most common is writers looking for new ways to better describe their writing. The great thing about this adjective tool is that it can help spark creative juices just by generating new adjectives. Simply seeing a random adjective can spark the imagination to come up with the perfect vocabulary for your writing. If nothing else, this tool will give you options you likely had never considered which in itself can be a great help.

    This free calculator is also an excellent way to improve your creative writing. A fun and easy way to challenge yourself is to generate a random adjective and then use it in a paragraph. Writers can expand on this and generate 5 to 10 adjectives and write a page or short story using all of them. Since what will be generated is unknown, it forces the writer to use creativity to use the adjectives to make a great paragraph or short story.

    Types of Adjectives

    Did you know that there are actually three types of adjectives in the Eglish language? Can you guess what they are? The following are the three different types of adjectives that are included in the calculator:

    Descriptive Adjectives

    Descriptive adjectives are the ones that most people think of when they hear the word "adjective." These are used to describe a specific characteristic of a noun. These are the words that help explain the noun's color, size, and shape among other things. In the sentence, "I walked past a sleek, yellow car on my way home," the words "sleek" and "yellow" are descriptive adjectives.

    Quantitative Adjectives

    Another type of adjective is the quantitative adjective. When a qualitative adjective is used, it helps to describe an approximate amount (or sometimes the exact amount) of a particular noun. In the sentence, "There were a few cars and many bicycles in front of the store" the words "few" and "many" are quantitative adjectives describing the number of cars and bicycles. Additional examples of quantitative adjectives would be a little, no, and all.

    Numerical adjectives are a type of quantitative adjective. Instead of a general amount, numerical adjectives give a specific number quantity. Some examples of this would be one, five, ten, second, and twentieth. In the sentence, "There were three cars and thirty bicycles in front of the store" the words "three" and "thirty" are numerical quantitative adjectives.

    Demonstrative Adjectives

    The third type of adjective is the demonstrative adjective. These are used when "which one?" needs to be answered by specifying a certain noun. In the sentence, "I love the color of this car, but not the color of that one" the words "this" and "that" are demonstrative adjectives describing which car is being referred to. Additional demonstrative adjectives are those and these.

    What is an adjective?

    Adjectives are words which modify nouns or pronouns to make the noun or pronoun more specific. They help to make both nouns and pronouns more specific so you can better communicate their meaning. For example, "the girl has a ball" is not as specific as "the young girl has a large, red ball."
