..
In general: always after the noun.
But if on this list, put the adjective first:
altro
bello
bravo
brutto
buono
caro
cattivo
giovane
grande
lungo
nuovo
piccolo
primo
stesso
vecchio
vero
ultimo
Ex:
un altro giorno
un lungo fiume
Try:
a small house
the first day
..
If adjective BEFORE the noun - it determines the article:
uno studente
un bravo studente
gli amici
i nuovi amici
With modifier (molto, poco, abbastanza, un po'); both are placed AFTER the noun.
a very new book - un libro molto nuovo.
a very smalll cup - una tazza molto piccola
In short:
The general rule: after.
Sometimes, first. (Which determines the article)
With modifier, always after.
Great work!
😊
