adjective: generous

generous-life-the_t_nt3

Today I’d like to write about an adjective: “generous”. It is used to talk about people who are very giving. For example:

My sister is a very generous person. She’s always giving presents to people that she knows.

My friend and I both gave money to a charity yesterday, but she was more generous than I was. She gave $100, but I only gave $50.

We can also use this adjective to talk about an offer which is very good. For example:

The job offer I got from ABC Company is very generous. They say they will pay me $90,000 a year and give me a three week vacation every year.

My friend wants to buy my car. He gave me a generous offer for it, but I don’t want to sell it.
