Q1.
Now, add the descriptions/describing words for the following:
…………………………… mangoes
…………………………… mangoes
Answer
sweet mangoes
This time the naming word is given. You must put a describing word in front of it.
Other correct answers: ripe mangoes, juicy mangoes, yellow mangoes, tasty mangoes.
Why the describing word goes in front: In English, the describing word comes before the naming word — we say sweet mangoes, never “mangoes sweet”. Look at the poem: “rocky ground”, “cheerful children”. The describing word is always first.
Tip: Use your senses to find a describing word. How does it taste? sweet. How does it look? yellow. How does it feel? soft. Any of these works.
Your own sentence: We ate sweet mangoes under the tree in the afternoon.
