careful when beauty is used as an adjective. Okay. So let's look at the note

here. Beauty is mostly used as a noun. Even in cases when it is used as an

adjective, it is only used before a noun and it really becomes more like a noun

phrase. Okay Beauty cannot be a stand-alone adjective.

So this is where students make the mistake. Maybe they look in the

dictionary and they see could be an adjective. But it can't, it can't be a

stand-alone adjective. It can't be by itself. Okay. Let's see.. Noun phrases that

describe activities, jobs, or products that are connected with making people

more beautiful. So these are the ones that we usually have beauty in it and here

are some examples where it looks like beauty's used as an adjective

but it's really more like a noun phrase. So for example, we say beauty salon,

beauty treatments, beauty products, beauty care, Beauty cream, beauty parlour, etc. So

these ways are correct. We use beauty technically as an adjective before these

and they kind of become a noun phrase. All right. Here's where the students make

a mistake. They make a mistake if they try to use beauty as an adjective by

itself. So of course with the X this would be wrong. I heard a number ... I have

heard a number of students sometimes say this. Like she is beauty. Now you can't

say she is beauty. You could say, the most correct way would simply say she's

beautiful. You should actually use the regular adjective. She's beautiful. You

could say she is a beauty. It's okay. Even though a beauty sometimes I don't know if a guy's use a

beauty as much with girls. I think they're more likely to use some of these.

She's a knockout or she's a beautiful woman. She's a

looker. She's a fox. Sometimes I hear guys say

she's a beauty. Sometimes they're talking about a car or a motorcycle. Sometimes I

hear that she's a beauty. They might say that about that.

But anyway that's the way we use it. Of course, you could use it as a noun like

that. And you know with the X here. This is one more mistake that students might

make. Again you can't use it as a stand-alone adjective. Those flowers are

beauty. No you have to say those flowers are beautiful. Okay. Anyway, I hope you got

it. I hope it was clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
