Dear List,
 
The following phrases seem different to me:
 
my beautiful gray Persian cat
 
my large black leather coat
 
my large gray Persian cat
 
my beautiful black leather coat
 
my old sad mangy cat
 
my sweet old Irish grandmother
 
my beautiful Irish linen tablecloth
 
Some of these need commas between some of the adjectives, but others seem not to. Do you agree? How can this be explained?
 
Thanks,
 
Scott Woods
