ABSTRACT
An adjective qualifies a noun or pronoun, adding a descriptive touch or defining quality. A Latin adjective matches the gender, number and case of the noun or pronoun it qualifies. There are adjectives that share the endings of 1st and 2nd declension nouns (bonus,-a,-um, magnus,-a,-um, etc), and there are those with endings similar to 3rd declension nouns (omnis,-e, ingēns, fēlīx). To the ‘3rd declension’ adjectives we can add vetus (genitive veteris) old, ācer (gen. ācris) keen, celer (gen. celeris) quick, pār (gen. paris) equal.
