Which word in the sentence is an adjective? The modern Olympics began in Athens, Greece, in 1896.

A. Olympics
B. modern
C. Greece
D. Athens

Answer :

CaliforniaTexan

Answer:

B. modern

Explanation:

The reason why answer choice "B. modern" would be the correct answer because this would be the adjective in the sentence.

An adjective is used to "support" a noun.

The word "modern" would be the adjective in this sentence because it is describing the noun to the right of it, it's describing the Olympics.

Olympics would be the noun in this case. The word Olympic by itself could be vague to people, due to the fact that they don't know what specifically is the Olympic based upon.

The word "modern" allows to people who read the sentence to know that it's talking about modern Olympics, not just any Olympics.

I hope this helped you out.

Good luck on your academics.

Have a fantastic day!
