findingthemojo no 69

Good afternoon

  • Recently learnt about the 'hierarchy of adjectives' - the unspoken rule that descriptions should follow, as follows: 'opinion-size-age-shape-colour-origin-material-purpose'.  English is such a fascinating language but must be a real challenge to learn if it's not your mother tongue.
  • With this in mind, it now makes perfect sense why Brett Murray's highly-controversial-large-fairly recent-colourful-painting depicting Mr Zuma's spear fulfilled it's purpose so successfully.
