１. We put adjectives before nouns：
白い家＝しろい いえ＝a white house
白い is an adjective, white.
家 is a noun, a house.
２. We also put adjectives after subjects that are with は/が particles.
私は若いです＝わたしは わかい です＝I'm young.
わたしは is a subject, は is a particle that shows わたし as a subject.
若い＝わかい is an adjective.
Japanese adjectives ends with い、しい、な、or の.
white：しろい (ends with い)
beautiful：うつくしい (ends with しい)
clean：清潔な＝せいけつな (ends with な)
～'s：～の
e.g.) Ken's pen：ケンのペン
a bird's feather：鳥の羽＝とりの はね
