How Some pointers when using Adjectives in English?

Your opinion usually precedes any other adjective.

E.g.

Those horrible yellow chairs; a foolish young boy.

It is common to use two adjectives, but it is unusual to use three or more adjectives.

Use commas to separate adjectives from the same category, e.g. opinion.

• A handsome, charming man.

You do not have to use commas if the adjectives are from different categories, e.g. opinion and nationality.

• A wealthy Japanese businessman.
