Let's learn 'kind'

It's very common to use kind as an adjective – kind describes someone who is caring and helpful, and it can also describe the actions that make them that way.

He always helps me – he's really kind.
That's such a kind gesture!

We also use this word as a noun to say what group something is in.

Tigers are a kind of cat.

Be careful! We can use 'kind of' to suggest that something is only just that type of thing.

This colour - it's kind of blue, kind of green, somewhere in the middle.

OK, it's kind of complicated but we use 'kind' as an adjective for good acts and good people – and we use it as a noun to talk about categories of things.
