### German (Attributive) Adjective Declension
|
140 |
+
|
141 |
+
There are 3 types of declensions for German adjectives
|
142 |
+
|
143 |
+
> [!TIP]
|
144 |
+
>
|
145 |
+
> - Predicate adjectives (e.g. kalt in mir ist kalt "I am _cold_") are undeclined
|
146 |
+
> - An adjective can both be predicative (a _brave_ boy) or attributive (The boy is _brave_). Only attributive
|
147 |
+
> adjectives are declined.
|
148 |
+
|

+
1. [strong declension](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_declension#Strong_inflection),
|
150 |
+
2. [week declension](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_declension#Weak_inflection), and
|
151 |
+
3. [mixed declension](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_declension#Mixed_inflection)
|
152 |
+
|
153 |
+
Each type bears a separate declension table. __To master German adjectives, we will need to memorize all of the three__.
|
154 |
+
|
155 |
+
There is also [adjective comparison](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_adjectives#Adjective_comparison) which throws
|
156 |
+
in potentially 6 more tables. But the rules for comparative and superlative forms are quite universal so we __ignore the
|
157 |
+
two and focus only on the positive form__, which is the basic form of the adjective.
