Adjectives add the ability to visualize something more clearly to a reader, convey
feelings with more emotion, and to describe exactly what the speaker or writer wants.

The perfect adjective can mean the di erence between a avorful, juicy, medium-well
cheeseburger and a basic mass-produced fast food sandwich. It’s all in how you
describe what you want.

Use this list to harness the power and deliciousness of the mighty adjective.
