Answer 2

I can help.
First though, may I ask if you are familiar with what an adjective is?

Answer 3

kinda.. I know I sound like an idoit lol but I am really bad at English, I know it describes and identifies a noun maybe??

Answer 4

Yes. That's right.
\(\bf\color{lime}{Adjectives}\) describe.

So, an \(\bf\color{lime}{adjective~phrase}\) is a \(\bf\underline{\color{cyan}{group~of~words~that~describe.}}\)

Answer 5

would it be C because brighten is a noun?? :D

Answer 6

Not quite, but you're on the right track! (:

First, let's find the subject.

Answer 7

I have always had trouble with like the adverbs and adjectives because whenever I ask Google or look at my school books I just don't really get it

Answer 8

Answer 9

Awe, well I can help. (:

Adjectives are words that are used to describe. For instance, \(\bf\color{lime}{bright}\) is an adjective.

Yes, you're right! Adjectives describe nouns. ^.^

Answer 10

Yay lol

Answer 11

So, in this case, we have to find the main subject, which would be a noun.

Answer 12

Answer 13

Right. :3

Answer 14

Is it Buildings cause local is a place?? Even though it dosent give me the exact location??

Answer 15

Yes, so brighten is an adjective so..?

Answer 16

*crossing fingers)

Answer 17

Actually local is an adjective.

Answer 18

Oh.. I'm an idiot 😂

Answer 19

So C and D are wrong?

Answer 20

Buildings IS a noun, but it's not the main noun (subject).
Think of it this way:
The subject is what is being talked about most in the sentence.

For instance:

The \(\bf\color{lime}{painting}\) was filled with \(\bf\color{blueviolet}{magnificent~purple~hues}\).
The green being the subject, and the purple being the adjective phrase.

Answer 21

Ohhhhhhh I get it now! Ok thanks lemmie see if I can get it right lol

Answer 22

DESCRIBES the noun ex:
I saw a COLORFUL painting
Colorful is the adjective

Answer 23

so don't you think BRIGHTEN would e an adjective

Answer 24

Is it a?? (or so I have the idiot disease)

Answer 25

Yes, there you go!

Answer 26

Yep!
\(\bf\color{blueviolet}{\bigstar~Great~Work!~\bigstar}\)

Answer 27

Brighten modifies murals since the murals brighten the walls and doors of many office buildings.
