Sorts physical words into body, hair and face groups and uses them correctly.
Uses have got and has got in positive, question and negative sentences.
Makes comparisons with the ending, with more and with the as... as structure.
Describes a person from general to specific and finishes with a distinguishing feature.
Writes a clear eyewitness or witness description with time, place and details.
Finds and corrects the most common mistakes in appearance descriptions.

Have got and has got change with the subject, but the question and the negative forms keep the same auxiliary.
Short adjectives such as tall, short and thin form their comparative with the ending and not with the word more.
A superlative about one specific group always needs the article the before the adjective.
The structure as... as expresses equality and it never appears together with the word than.
Physical words are easier to remember in three groups: the body, the hair and the face.
A useful description moves from general to specific and finishes with one distinguishing feature.
After a negative word we normally use any with a count noun, but we use the article a in the positive sentence.
He, she and it take has got, and I, you, we and they take have got, and mixing these forms is the most frequent error.

Using have with he, she or it: Say she has got and never say she have got, because a third person singular subject always needs the s form.
Forgetting the article before a count noun: In a positive sentence write she has got a scar and not she has got scar, but after a negative word we use any.
Writing more tall or more short: These adjectives have only one syllable, so their comparatives take the ending instead of the word more.
Mixing hair and eyes: Eyes are brown, green, blue or grey, while hair has a colour, a length and a shape such as straight or curly.
Leaving out the distinguishing feature: A description without one special detail is too weak, because general information fits thousands of people.
Adding an extra s to an uncountable idea: Say long hair and not long hairs when you mean all of the hair on the head.

Sort every new physical word into body, hair or face before you try to learn it.
Say the whole sentence in your head before you write it, and check whether the subject needs has or have.
Ask is this adjective short or long, because the answer decides between the ending and the word more.
Do not forget the article before a count noun in a positive sentence, such as a scar or a moustache.
In an exam, finish a description with one distinguishing feature so that the answer feels complete.
In a witness statement, always begin with the time and the place before you describe the person.
