TO MAKE ADJECTIVES STRONGER, USE "VERY" OR "REALLY"

 In this lesson, we learn how to make adjectives stronger using the words very and really. These words help us describe things in a more powerful way.

Examples:

  • This pizza is very good!

  • She is really tired.

  • It’s a very hot day.

We use very and really before adjectives to show stronger feelings or opinions.

Structure:

  • Subject + be + very/really + adjective

Examples:
