order of adjectives
|
|
Hi! I tell my students to learn by heart OPISIAGE COLORMATY to know the order of adjectives (opinion, size, age, colour...) but I �ve got a question: what is the order when there are two opinion adjectives?? An unfriendly rich lady or a rich unfriendy lady. For me the first one sounds better but which is more general unfriendly or rich?

unfriendly rich lady. I don�t know if there is an official rule, but it sounds more natural to put the more subjective opinion first, if possible. For me, being unfriendly is more subjective than being rich. |

Sorry but what does OPISIAGE COLORMATY mean? Is it some sort of Mnemonic device? |
