The video lesson from Oxford Online English teaches how to correctly order adjectives in English. It begins with an example using the words 'strong', 'black', 'Italian', and 'coffee', explaining that the correct order is 'strong black Italian coffee'. The lesson introduces two basic rules: opinion adjectives precede fact adjectives, and general adjectives precede specific ones. It also presents the full, complex rule for adjective order, though it emphasizes that this is rarely needed. The lesson concludes with practical advice, encouraging learners to trust their instincts and remember the basic rules.
