Which identifies a sentence with a misplaced adjective?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

An adjective has to come before the noun it is describing; if that is not the case, then it is misplaced.  

For example, the sentence: I walked down the street.

I can say, "I walked down the dark street."

But if the word dark was anywhere else, it would be a misplaced adjective.
