Determiners and Adjectives: The difference and Types • The words in boldface describe the nouns (in italics) they precede, just like adjectives do. So are they adjectives or something else? However, these words show a limited description, like referring to a fixed information like direction, quantity, etc. making these words a separate word class, called determiners.
