=== Understanding Adjectives === | |||
Adjectives in Indonesian are words that describe nouns. They help specify qualities, characteristics, or conditions of the nouns they modify. In Indonesian, adjectives usually come after the noun they describe, which is different from English where adjectives generally come before nouns. | |||
For example: | |||
Adjectives are | * '''English:''' The beautiful flower. | ||
* '''Indonesian:''' Bunga yang cantik. | |||
Here’s a more detailed breakdown of how adjectives function in Indonesian: | |||
* '''Positioning:''' As mentioned, adjectives typically follow the noun. For instance: | |||
* '''Indonesian:''' Rumah besar (big house) | |||
* '''English:''' House big | |||
* '''Forming Adjectives:''' Many adjectives in Indonesian are simple words, and some can be formed from verbs or nouns by adding prefixes or suffixes. | |||
* '''Examples:''' Here are some common Indonesian adjectives: | |||
