suitable adjectives.....
Good day all...
1- If i want to describe a speech, can I say :
a good speech
perfect speech
2- How can I know using suitable adjective for nouns, i.e. describing nouns. I want my English sound good, how to know using this adjective and not this ?
Does this exist in English ? that some adjectives are only suitable and applicable for only some nouns?
for example , may be I can not use (nice) for describing something, or i cant say (pretty sentence) but may be I can say (nice sentence)?
thanks in advance

alend.leofor example , may be I can not use (nice) for describing something, or i cant say (pretty sentence) but may be I can say (nice sentence)?You can say "a pretty sentence" but that's not the most ordinary thing on the lips of an English speaker. I think you'll hear "a nice sentence" more often.
