As you already know from previous years the basic order order of adjectives with in a sentence, find here a document you might find useful, explaining you the order in which adjectives go when several of them appear at the same time in a sentence.

As you usually use mostly the same adjectives all the time, find here a link to a quite interesting web page in which you find a long list of adjectives. If you click in an adjective a new window will pop up with the translation of the adjective as well as a demonstration of its pronunciation. Cool!

Hope you like!
