UNIT 3: Together We Live
Grammar
I. Read the following phrases.a green valley
a lush green valley
As you know the words ‘lush’ and ‘green’ are adjectives.
They describe the noun, ‘valley’. If we have to add one
more adjective ‘deep’ to the above adjectives where would we add? Here
are some of the possibilities:
a lush green deep valley
a lush deep green valley
a deep lush green valley
The first combination is the only acceptable combination. Now we have to
understand why the first combination is acceptable.
