Sometimes we use two or more adjectives together：
My brother lives in a nice new house.
In the kitchen there was a beautiful large round wooden table.
Adjectives like new/large/round/wooden are fact adjectives. They give us factual information about age, size, colour etc.
Adjectives like nice/beacutiful are opinion adjectives. They tell us what somebody thinks of something or somebody
Opinion adjectives usually go before favt adjectives.
Sometimes we use two or more fact adjectives. Very often (but not always) we put fact adjectives in this order：
how big？(size)→how old？(age)→what colour？(colour)→where from？(origin)→what is it made of？(material)→NOUN
＊Adjectives of size and length (big/small/tall/short/long etc.) usually go before adjectives of shape and width (round/fat/thin/slim/wide etc.)：
a large round table a tall thin girl a long narrow street
＊When there are two colour adjectives, we use and：
a black and white dress a red, white and green flag
＊We use adjectives after be/get/become/seem：
Be careful! I'm tired and I'm getting hungry. As the film went on, it became more and more boring.
＊We also use adjectives to say how somebody/something looks, feels, sounds, tastes or smells：
You look tired./I feel tired./She sounds tired.
The dinner smells good. This tea tastes a bit strange.
But to say how somebody does something you must use an adverb
Drive carefully! Susan plays the piano very well.
