Most adjectives do go before the noun but some go after. In high school I was taught a mnemonic device to remember which adjectives go before the noun:
Beauty
Age
Goodness
Size

But this isn't always the case. For example, the French don't agree on what to call the Holy Spirit. Some say "le Saint-Esprit" and some say "l'Esprit Saint." So just remember that (most of the times) BAGS adjectives go before the noun.

French adjectives change to agree in gender and number with the nouns that they modify. This means that there can be up to four forms of each adjective: masculine singular, feminine singular, masculine plural, and feminine plural. Some very irregular adjectives even have different forms depending on whether the noun that follows them begins with a vowel or a consonant.
