Descriptive Adjectives[edit | edit source]
Descriptive adjectives are the most commonly used type of adjectives in Bengali. As the name suggests, they describe or provide more information about a noun. Descriptive adjectives can be used to describe the color, size, shape, quality, or any other characteristic of a noun.
Let's look at some examples of descriptive adjectives in Bengali:

In the examples above, the Bengali words in the first column are descriptive adjectives that provide additional information about the nouns. For example, "সুন্দর" (shundor) means "beautiful," "বড়" (bor) means "big," and "ক্ষুদ্র" (kshudro) means "small." These adjectives help us paint a clearer picture of the nouns they modify.
To use descriptive adjectives in a sentence, simply place them before the noun they describe. For example:
- এটা সুন্দর ফুল। (Eta shundor ful.) (This is a beautiful flower.)
- তার বড় বাড়ি আছে। (Tar bor bari ache.) (He has a big house.)
- সেই ছোট ছেলেটি আমার ভাই। (Sei chhoto cheleti amar bhai.) (That little boy is my brother.)
Remember to match the gender and number of the adjective with the noun it modifies. In Bengali, adjectives agree with the gender and number of the noun they describe.
