2) Modify / Change Noun

• An intelligent person

---

In this example sentence intelligent is an Adjective (intelligent -> adjective) And Person is a (Noun) and the word intelligent is modifying a noun because it is totally changing the meaning or sense why because if we say "A stupid person" so the word stupid is actually changing the whole meaning / Sense in your mind means whenever we need help so will first think 2 or 3 times before taking help from this person but if i say "An intelligent person" this also changes the meaning / sense in our mind about this person so this change is called modify A noun
