Intensifiers

1. Intensifiers add strength to the meaning of an adjective.

very

really

extremely

amazingly

exceptionally

incredibly

remarkably

particularly

enough

2. When we want to indicate that something or someone is exceptional, we can use strong adjectives.

enormous

terrible

tiny

excellent

brilliant

perfect

marvelous

Since these strong adjectives already indicate an extreme ("enormous" = "very large"), we do not use the intensifier "very". As an intensifier for strong adjectives, it is generally used: "absolutely", "exceptionally", "particularly", "really" or "quite".

Some intensifiers can only be used with particular adjectives.

examples:

dangerously ill

dangerously fast

seriously injured

highly successful

bitterly disappointed

bitterly cold

3. With comparative adjectives, particular words or phrases are used as intensifiers.

much

a lot

a great deal

a good bit

4.With superlative adjectives we use the following:

easily

by far
