Adjectives (Malay-English) Flashcards

4. An adjective may be placed before the noun (for the purpose of emphasis). The suffix "nya" may be added further to make it more emphatic -E.g. panas hari ini! Panasnya hari ini 5. Possessive adjectives are formed simply by placing personal pronouns after the nouns 6. Use "sama" before the adjective if a person/thing is compared with another as being alike or equal in some respects -E.g. sama tinggi 7. Use "lebih (adj) daripada", or "(adj) lagi" for comparison
