Using an adjective in a sentence when you should use a noun will make your English sound strange. Let's try cuting down on your errors by taking this short quiz. For each question you have two options. Choose either the adjective or noun form.
It's imprtant to read the questions carefully. All the information you need to make the right choice is right there. Perhaps you were unaware of the 'other' form of the word, so this is a good chance to learn some new vocab. As good English learners, you should be keeping a notebook of new words. Make sure you write any new words in your notebboks (write down the whole sentence because that makes it easier to learn the word).
So how many did you get?

Noun or Adjective
Nice, 10/10. I was able to review my knowledge of usage and position of nouns and adjectives in the sentence. Practice makes perfect! But I know there are cases when adjective could be used as a noun.
i obtained 9/10

But you used this word correctly in your message and will never forget it again. Anyway it's much easy than phrasal verbs...

5 is wrong
word hard
not clear
I was actually correct in all the 10.
But i could say it's out of luck.Though I am
seriously studying english, I find difficult
to say that this is adjective or noun. Some explanations
from Chris will through light on this problem.
just one
good lesson thanks
