A modifier is a word or a group of words that adds more specific or detailed information to another word (usually a noun or a verb) in a sentence. Modifiers can include adjectives, adverbs, phrases, and clauses. Essentially, a modifier alters, clarifies, or enhances the meaning of the word or phrase it is modifying, making it more descriptive and interesting to the reader. For example, in the sentence "The tall, lean man with curly hair walked slowly into the room," the modifiers are "tall," "lean," "with curly hair," and "slowly," which all modify the noun "man" and the verb "walked."
