Adjective Order

An adjective is a word that modifies a noun or describes it's referent.

In my constructed language, adjectives succeed the noun they describe or modify, or in other words, the adjective is placed after the noun. In English, the adjective is usually placed before the noun it modifies or describes. Let's use this sentence as an example: "A big ship."

If translated, it would be: "Uno barco grando." As you can see, the adjective succeeded the noun, instead of preceding it.

In the case in which a noun is described or modified with multiple adjectives, the adjectives are conjuncted. The order of the adjectives relative to each other does not matter. Let's use this sentence as an example: "A big, rusty ship."

If translated, it would be: "Uno barco grando et ferrugato" or "Uno barco ferrugato et grando."
