In writing, descriptive words give the reader a picture of what you are trying to express without using metaphors or similes. A descriptive word is also known as an adjective. An adjective makes the scene seem realer. For example, say you read this sentence. "They lifted the Caution tape and examined the body." That is really vague. Now add adjectives. "They lift the neon yellow bold-lettered caution tape and examined the pockmarked bloody body."
