Adjectives modify nouns by expressing to whom the object belongs. Chinese grammar is exclusive of adjectives; instead, they use stative verbs or pronouns to express possession. In order to show possession, a person may adjoin ‘de’ to personal pronouns as indicated below

Chinese Adjectives
Mandarin adjectives are placed after the noun they describe. All Mandarin adjectives implicitly include “to be,” so instead of saying, “He is tall,” simply say “He tall.”
Positive Mandarin adjectives usually need an adverb. If no other adverb is used, the positive adjective is preceded with (hěn), which means “very”. In this situation, though, hěn does not necessarily carry any meaning, so “Tā hěn gāo” could mean either “He is tall,” or “He is very tall.”
