LESSON 11 ADJECTIVES
Other pronouns can also be
used as adjectives, but they are not always adjectives as the seven
mentioned in lesson 31. Demonstrative pronouns, this, that, these, those;
interrogative pronouns, whose, which, what; and indefinite pronouns,
another, any, both, each, either, many, neither, one, other, some;
when used with a noun become adjectives. Cardinal and ordinal
numbers can be adjectives. Examples: ten students (cardinal), the tenth
student (ordinal). Pronouns used as adjectives are called pronominal
adjectives.
