Answer 1

Hint: Adjectives are words which describe a noun. Snow and winter both have ‘low temperatures’ in common.

Complete answer:
Some adjectives for snow are:
Cold – means having very low temperature; snow has very low temperature
Icy – means extremely cold; snow is extremely cold
White – snow is colorless, or white in color
Undisturbed – means not interfered with; when snow has fallen and it lays there without human interference
Opaque – an object through which light does not pass; light does not pass through snow and all of it is reflected back.

Some adjectives for winter are:
Cold – low temperature; winter season is characterized with low temperatures
Freezing – means extremely cold
Snowy – region or time which experiences a lot of snowfall; snowfalls only occur in winter season

Note:
- Another similar part of speech is the ‘Adverb’.
- Adverbs are words which are similar to adjectives and function, i.e. they are also describing words.
- But adverbs are used to describe verbs or actions.
- For e.g. He runs very fast. Here fast is the adverb.
