In this post, we’ll learn how to tell if a word is an adjective or an adverb, relying on fundamental differences between the two and not on how a word looks.

In coordinate adjectives, each attributive adjective individually describes the noun. In cumulative adjectives, each attributive adjective piles on the adjective after, and then they together (not individually) describe the noun.

Out-of-order adjectives are attributive adjectives that are out of their normal order, implying that instead of coming before a noun, they come after the noun.

The entire universe of words, phrases, and clauses that function as a noun are called nominals. In other words, nominals are a much larger umbrella of words, phrases, and clauses than nouns; nouns are subset of nominals.
