মূল ধারণা
What is a describing word
A describing word (গুণ-শব্দ / বিশেষণ) tells us what something is like — for example red, big, sweet, soft.
With naming words
Describing words sit with naming words: ‘a red ball’, ‘a big tree’, ‘a sweet mango’. The describing word tells us more about the naming word.
In a sentence
In ‘The big dog barks.’, the word ‘big’ describes the dog, so ‘big’ is the describing word.
