In English, adjectives typically follow the order DOSA-SCOMP, which stands for Determiner, Opinion, Size, Age, Shape, Color, Origin, Material, and Purpose. For example, "My favorite big old square white French cotton gardening hat". در کل میشه قاعده کلی بالا رو بکار بست. به ترتیب با عقیده، سایز، سن، شکل، رنگ، مبدا یا کشور، جنس و هدف را در نهایت به اسم ببندیم.
