Determiners English Grammar For Class 6

Determiners
Determiners have often been mistaken with adjectives. Let’s clear this confusion and study what is a determiner and how is it different from adjectives. Determiners do not tell anything about things or persons, only helps in pointing them out. Adjectives are used to describe whereas determines are used to determine. Determiners contain several classes of words like articles (a, an, the) possessive adjectives (his, their, my) and numerals (first, third, two, seven). Determiners can also be of quantity and number like some, many, any, much. Therefore, all determiners are adjectives but not all adjectives are determiners.
