Adjective Grammar Quiz
A quiz is an excellent way to test whether the adjective is being used correctly. For example, the quiz can check if the adjective is modifying the correct word or if it is placed too far away from the noun it is modifying.
The printable Adjective Quiz above has several questions that will help the grammatical understanding of adjectives. Some questions check whether the adjective is being used correctly in the sentence. Other questions ask for a blank to be filled with an appropriate adjective or for the adjectives in a paragraph to be circled. Answers:

Adjective Definition Quiz
Another way to use quizzes that are related to adjectives is to take quizzes that test your knowledge of the meanings of adjectives. Many people use common adjectives in their daily lives, but when asked the actual definition of the adjective, they are stumped.
It can be difficult to pin down exactly what an adjective means unless you study definitions and make an effort to learn the real meanings of adjectives. By making quizzes for yourself or for a struggling student that force the quiz-taker to learn the definitions of tricky adjectives, you or the student can quickly boost your vocabulary knowledge. For a start on developing your own quiz, check out the printable quiz provided above. Answers: 1. sorry; 2. angry; 3. lively; 4. high; 5. nervous
