QUALIFIERS / INTENSIFIERS

QUALIFIERS / INTENSIFIERS

Qualifiers / intensifiers are words like very, too, so, quite, rather.
Qualifiers are function parts of speech.  They do not add inflectional morphemes, and they do not have synonyms.  Their sole purpose is to "qualify" or "intensify" an adjective or an adverb.
Qualifiers / intensifiers modify adjectives or adverbs, telling to what degree.
