of days ago I couldn’t even talk so

today yeah it’s been not a nice week but

I’m here with new content for you and

today I thought I’d do a bit of grammar

which I haven’t done in a very long time

today we’re going to talk about

objective order which is really really

important if you want to sound like a

native speaker for get started I just

reading and your pronunciation because

you get to hear how the word is

pronounced let’s get on with the video

now this is a general order you might

sometimes hear native speakers using a

different order but this is generally

the order that we use it’s quite long

but it goes as the following first we

would say our opinion opinion first

something is ugly or gorgeous then we

would say the size of the noun big tiny

then we would say the shape fat round

then we would say the condition broken

dirty and we would say the age ancient

new for example then the color red white

you guys know the color then the pattern

spotty striped then we would say the

origin Spanish Indonesian

then we would go and say the material

cotton metal and finally the purpose so

a sleeping for like a sleeping bag or a

flower for a flower pot so so this is

the order that we use to lift the

adjectives before a noun but my tip

is we don’t tend to list more than three

so use this order pick three of them and

put it before an hour so for example

I’ve got a red Spanish flamenco dress no

I really really do love it I can’t wait

to wear it

at the city of Sevilla and this year

okay

or I could say I am wearing a burgundy

silk blouse so as I like to talk about

important items and prized possessions

in the comments I would like you to

write three objects that you really

really love so I want you to describe

them using adjectives in the correct

order guys that’s it for today’s lesson
