Final answer:
Adjectives are words that describe nouns. In the provided sentences, 'delicious', 'gorgeous', 'short-term', 'important', 'ancient', and 'fluffy' are the adjectives describing various nouns. 'Fast' is used as an adverb in the context given.
Step-by-step explanation:
Identifying adjectives in sentences involves finding words that modify or describe nouns. Let's break down each sentence:
- She cooks delicious foods. - 'Delicious' is the adjective describing the noun 'foods'.
- Her hairstyle is gorgeous. - 'Gorgeous' is the adjective describing the noun 'hairstyle'.
- It is a short-term course. - 'Short-term' is the adjective phrase describing the noun 'course'.
- This is an important announcement. - 'Important' is the adjective describing the noun 'announcement'.
- This is an ancient statue. - 'Ancient' is the adjective describing the noun 'statue'.
- My pet has fluffy skin. - 'Fluffy' is the adjective describing the noun 'skin'.
- He drives fast. - While 'fast' can be an adjective, in this sentence, it is being used as an adverb to describe the verb 'drives' and hence does not count as an adjective here.
As you can see, adjectives and their phrases provide more detail about the noun they are describing, whether it's food, hairstyle, courses, announcements, statues, or the skin of a pet.
