Words that tell about nouns are called adjectives. Adjectives may tell the number, size, shape, color, or other details about the noun. A List of Good Adjectives (or Words that Describe the Noun) < > ==================== Adverbs tell about verbs. Adverbs tell how the action happens. Adverbs usually end in "ly."
