describing an object, we definitely use adjectives, such as big,
small, tall, short, smart, friendly, and so on. Example:

pointed nose, and long hair. She is smart and friendly.

Simple Present Tense is usually used to state
facts or general truths, as well as habits. When
describing an object, we will use this type of
tense because what we describe from the
object is a fact.
3.Adverbs of Frequency
Adverb of frequency is an adverb
that is useful for showing how often
an activity is done . Well, in

habits of objects using this.
