Using this adjective in a sentence

An adjective describes a noun and normally sits in front of it: a narrow road.
After a linking verb it moves to the other side of the verb: The road is narrow. The two sentences mean the same thing.
Short adjectives take -er and -est for comparison (narrow, narrower, narrowest); longer ones take more and most (more expensive, most expensive).
Words ending in -ed and -ing often behave like adjectives: an interesting book, the missing file.
