When Should You Use Commas Between Adjectives? What's Adjective Order? English Writing Tips w/Alisha
We don't need to put commas between all adjectives. This video explains a simple (but sometimes flexible) rule for comma use with adjectives. Use one between adjectives that belong to the same adjective category.

This video will give you a quick introduction to them. You'll also get some quick tricks you can use to help you decide when to use a comma and when not to.
