It is important to know Spanish adjectives because
if you move to Mexico and you are a storywriter you need to describe things.
If you are a reporter you have to interview people and you have to describe
what they said. If you are a poet you have to explain what you mean. If
you went to Spain and you hurt your leg, you would have to speak Spanish
and use adjectives to describe the pain. If you were a scientist in Puerto
Rico, you would have to know how to speak Spanish to describe what happened
in the experiment. In conclusion if you are anywhere on Earth where people
speak Spanish you have to know adjectives.

One way to remember popular is to remember how to say popular
in English.
There once was a guy who always wore red and his
name was Don. He was a very round man so they gave him the nickname Redondo.
Oscar Oscuro was a monster that only came out in
the dark.
One way to tell what word in Spanish means tall is
to remember that alto has 't', 'a', and 'l' also.
One way to remember what word is bright in Spanish
is to remember how brilliant and intelligent people are also called bright.
Brillante means bright, you just have to add an e to brilliant.
You can remember how to match verde with its English
word because green has two e's and a r and so does verde.
Blue has four letters and so does azul. They both
also have l and u. That's a way to remember blue in Spanish.
