    Adjectives – 2

    1) Adjec ves of Number: We can find out adjec ve of number by asking ques on
    'how many' to the countable noun. Such adjec ves can be a number or indefinite
    number.
    E.g.: Most boys like to play cricket.
    Here 'boys' is a countable noun and we ask the ques on 'how many' to the
    countable noun 'boys'. We get the answer 'most'. So we call 'most' an adjec ve
    of number.
    E.g.: Ten boys like to play cricket.
    Here 'boys' is a countable noun and we ask the ques on 'how many' to the
    countable noun 'boys'. We get the answer 'ten'. So we call 'ten' an adjec ve of
    number. In this case 'ten' shows the exact number of boys. So both 'ten' and
    'most' are adjec ve of number.

    In the adjec ve of number, the noun has to be countable

    A. Underline the Adjec ves of Number:


    1) Hari won the second prize. 5) Few people a ended the rally.
    2) There are twenty students in the class. 6) Every chair in the hall was occupied.
    3) He was standing third in the row. 7) Are there any birds on the tree?
    4) There are some chocolates in the jar. 8) Five ducks were in the pond.

    Read carefully : I eat some rice.I have some pencils.


    rice  = uncountable noun, so some = adjec ve of quan ty
    pencils = countable noun, so some = adjec ve of number
