What is the order of adjectives in a Latin sentence?

Answer 1

They can go in whatever order you want. The fact that the adjective

must agree with the noun it goes with in gender, case and number

is often enough clue to determine what noun an adjective goes

with. This leads to such unusual (to English speakers) constructions

as adjectives being separated from their nouns by one or more

unrelated words, or nouns with adjectives modifiying them both

before and after.

Answer 2

The usual position is after the noun, but there is no hard-and-fast rule about this. Latin word order is quite free, and adjectives can appear either before of after the noun they modify, or even sometimes somewhere else in the sentence entirely (especially in poetry). This is made possible by the fact that Latin adjectives must agree in gender, number and case with their associated nouns, so it is usually possible to tell which adjective goes with which noun, even if several other words intervene.
