<span>Proper adjectives have their initial letter capitalised, for example American - derived from a proper noun America - or Victorian - derived from (queen) Victoria.

Common adjectives, on the contrary, don't have </span><span>their initial letter capitalised</span>, for example green, empty, colourful. Just remember that "common adjective" is not a scientific term used by linguists, it is informal.

Answer:

<u>Proper adjectives have their initial letter capitalized</u>

Explanation:

Most adjectives used in writing and speech are common adjectives. Common adjectives are not capitalized. This is because they are everyday words, not derived from proper nouns. Proper adjectives are derived from proper nouns.

Exercise 1 Underline the adverb clause in each sentence.
solmaris [256]

Dino ran the 100-yard dash much faster <u>than </u>I did.

An adverb clause is a collection of words this is used to exchange or qualify the meaning of an adjective, a verb, a clause, any other adverb, or another sort of word or phrase except determiners and adjectives that immediately regulate nouns. Adverb clauses usually meet three necessities: First, an adverb clause continually consists of a subject and a verb. Second, adverb clauses comprise subordinate conjunctions that prevent them from containing complete thoughts and becoming complete sentences. Third, all adverb clauses solution one of the conventional adverb questions: while? Why? How? where?

An adverb of time states when something happens or how often. An adverb of time often starts with one of the following subordinating conjunctions: after, as, as long as, as soon as, before, no sooner than, since, until, when, or while.

An adverb of manner states how something is done. An adverb of manner often starts with one of the following subordinating conjunctions: as, like, or the way.

An adverb of reason offers a reason for the main idea. An adverb of reason often starts with one of the following subordinating conjunctions: as, because, given, or since.
