DESCRIPTONS (adjective order)

Here is a nice and clear explanation of the correct order of English adejectives in the sentence.

On the last sessions we have worked on describing people. Therefore your next written assignment is to produce a description of a friend of yours, a member of your family or a celebrity that you admire including the vocabulary that you have learnt. Use 175-200 words including
-how long have you known him/her
-where did you meet
-what is special about them
-their character/personality and appearance.

Remember to use structures that you have learnt this year: passive voice, past perfect,modal verbs, conditionals, comparisons, relative clauses, etc (you don't have to use them all).
Here is a very basic video on description, however you might find some useful expressions for your homework.


You can email me the composition or hand it to me in class.
