The normal position of an adjective is directly before the noun it modifies.
e.g. The dirty worn out book was thrown out.
However, for stylistic reasons, adjectives may come after the noun they modify
e.g. The book, dirty and worn out was thrown out.
When an adjective comes before the subject of the sentence (or immediately after the subject and before the verb) we say it is attributive.
An attributive adjective comes at the subject position.
A predicative adjective is separated form the word it modifies by a verb.
e.g. The girl is fast and meticulous.
Adj adj
Predicative adjectives occur at the predicate position.
