    When using multiple adjectives in a sentence, there is a generally accepted order that should be followed: quantity, opinion, size, age, shape, color, origin, and material. Adjectives of the same type are separated by commas. Examples demonstrate arranging adjectives based on this order, such as using commas between multiple opinion adjectives like "lovely, old, red" or separating different types like size and origin in "3-year-old, Italian." Maintaining the standard adjective order makes sentences clearer and more consistent.
