Speaking: Order of adjectives

Exercise 2: Use the table in Ex. 1 to describe some of the items (1-5) you bought to your partner.

• I bought some square striped velvet cushions.

Explanation: When describing objects, the general order of adjectives is: Opinion - Size - Age - Shape - Color - Origin - Material - Purpose. In this case, 'square' (shape), 'striped' (pattern, which is often grouped with color/appearance), and 'velvet' (material) are used in a common and logical order.
