When several adjectives modify the same noun, there is a particular order they must follow in English. Certain adjectives come before others. (Not all have to be used in the same sentence.)
See the chart below.
Examples:
- Some of the hungry gentlemen
- The last great civilization
- Ten big round metal rings
- The beautiful Japanese ceramic vase
- Either of the small green apples
- My three lovely daughters
- An interesting wooden statue
- The third red plastic container
