First are nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
Words can be divided into various groups such as nouns, verbs and adjectives.
Look at this

名詞 形容詞 名詞 動詞
Noun Adjective Noun Verb
(The monkey eats a big banana.)
“Saru” and “banana” are nouns
“Tabemasu” is a verb
“Ookii” is an adjective
The adjective “ookii” describes the noun “banana”
There are two types of adjectives
“I adjective” and “na adjective”
“I adjective” becomes “I” in front of a noun like “ookii(big banana”.
“Na adjective” becomes “Na” in front of a noun like “kireina(luxury) banana”.
