There are times when an adjective is placed after the verb. This is more common when the verb being used is a "linking verb". In this case it is common that an adjective is used with with the "linking verb", but the adjective doesn't describe the verb. The adjective describes the subject that is performing the action. Adjectives are not used to describe the verb.
Examples:
- The cake looks good.
- Your hair looks great. Where did you get your hair cut.
- My mother lost her keys.
- The boys play ball all the time.
It is importatnt is understand if an adjective is need or if a adverb is needed. There is an easy way to tell. Do I need to define the verb of the sentnece or do I need to define the subject that is performing the action.
Example:
- Your hair grew slowly.
- The dog grew angry.
- The boys talk loudly.
- My brother talks big.
