So today, we have a really fun lesson for you.
We are talking about the 25 most common adjectives in English.
So today, we are going to share with you the 25 most common adjectives in English.
And these are taken from the Oxford English Corpus, which is just a collection of the English language.
Keep in mind that if you study English you should really, really know these 25 words.
So we're going to tell you the adjective and also give you an example sentence.
So we're going to count down from #25.
And we don't know each other's adjectives, so we're
going to try and think of a sentence just right off the top of our head.
So number twenty-five - the 25th most common adjectives in English is ABLE.
You can speak more than that. No?
I can understand like five.
Twenty-four is SAME.
Can you believe it?
Yeah. Scandalous.
Number twenty-three - I actually thought this one would be higher but it's not - is BAD.
Oh. I'm surprised in the higher too.
I thought you were going to say Wes is a bad boy.
Can we talk all his socks and sandal phase.
Number twenty-two is PUBLIC.
Public park. What's wrong with the public park?
Nothing. I just...I had a weird image in...
It's...it's a fine example.
Number twenty-one is FEW.
He has like two shirts.
No I don't. I have like four.
And two pairs of jeans.
It's few.
Number twenty - and this one I thought would be higher too - IMPORTANT.
Really?
Alright...
Something is important.
Number nineteen - YOUNG.
Can you give us a sentence while we're young?
Wes is a young man.
What's wrong with "Wes is a young man"?
Wes is a...because it's not true.
Wes is not a young man.
That's a terrible sentence.
Eighteen is EARLY.
Okay, this is true.
I am not an early riser. That is...yes.
Yes, I hate early mornings
Yeah, we got it.
Number seventeen is NEXT.
Number sixteen is LARGE.
It is large. Quite large.
Number fifteen - quite fittingly - is SMALL.
They're so cute. They're so small.
I like this one. Number fourteen is DIFFERENT.
Sometimes. It can be a good thing.
Yeah. We should all be different.
Number thirteen is HIGH.
Yeah. High.
Okay.
What are you thinking about?
High heels. High building. Yeah. If a person is high then they've been smoking something.
Drugs.
In case that wasn't clear for you.
Number twelve is BIG.
Is big?
Can't wait.
Big meal.
Indian.
Yeah, that's true. We're going to go get some Indian. Have a big meal.
Number eleven...
I kind of want to give the sentence, but never mind.
Number eleven is RIGHT.
Oh no. Wes is going to say "Wes is always right." It's not true.
That is a good sentence. Thank you. Yes.
It's annoying because he's usually right.
Why is that annoying?
Put yourself in my shoes.
But we're on... we're on...we're on the same team. So it's good.
But you love to tell me that you're always right.
That's why I'm a bad boy.
Top ten! Wahoo!
This is also appropriate for Wes - OLD.
What? Old?
All right to be fair, I'd say...
How old is it Wes?
Probably...I don't know, maybe seven or eight years.
We met five years ago, and you had it.
I know I said it's like seven or eight years.
It's old.
Like its owner.
What?
Number nine is OTHER.
So if somebody asks like "Oh, can I have that one?" I can say...
Yeah. Something else. You could say like "What did you do the other day?"
Oh, yeah.
Other day.
Number eight is OWN.
Or like it's something that's yours.
Yeah.
My very own camera. I can't believe my own luck.
Number seven is LITTLE.
It's a nice word.
It's cute.
I'm trying to think of a cute sentence.
It should be first thing that pops your head. Go! Go! Go! Go!
Okay.
You don't want a big cat?
No. A little one.
I want a big cat.
I want a little one.
I want a big chubby cat.
I expected this to be where it is - GREAT.
Number six is GREAT.
Great. I would say...
Ioana, she's great.
That's true. I am great.
Even though I'm always right.
We've entered the top five.
Do you think other people are as excited about adjectives as we are?
Probably not.
So number five is LONG.
I was really tired so yesterday felt like a long day.
I think a lot of people use it in that way. Like "Ah, it's been a long day."
Number four is LAST.
Okay, like...
You could say last week, last month, last year.
When we ran our marathon, we came in last.
When we ran the marathon, yeah, we were almost last.
Almost.
We weren't quite last.
There were four people after us.
Number three - it's interesting how close they are together because number three is FIRST.
We were nowhere close to first.
I was going to talk about my first kiss, but it's inappropriate.
Yeah, people talk about first kiss, first date.
Yeah, I guess that's why probably first is probably more common than last.
Okay the second one, second to last...second to first....
Number two is NEW.
I was going to say new clothes.
Yeah, I need a new pair of shoes.
So the number one adjective - the most popular adjective in English is...
You're screaming in my ear.
GOOD. Number one is GOOD.
I like that that's the first one.
That is a good adjective. Yeah, it's good.
I don't think that's surprising at all.
We use good all the time.
How are things? - Good.
Basically anything. How are you doing? - Good.
That's like the answer to everything.
Keep in mind, these are Important adjectives
