covered with or full of grass
Describing a place where a lot of grass grows.
Bruksmønster:
a grassy [place]
Vanlig feil:
Learners sometimes say *"the ground has many grass"* instead of using the adjective and saying *"the ground is grassy"* or *"there is a lot of grass on the ground"*. Another mistake is using *"grass"* instead of *"grassy" before a noun, for example *"a grass hill"* instead of *"a grassy hill"*.

having a grass-like taste or smell
Describing food or drink that tastes or smells a bit like fresh grass.
Bruksmønster:
[food/drink] has a grassy taste
Vanlig feil:
Learners may confuse *"grassy"* with *"graceful"* or think it only describes land. In food and drink, *"grassy"* is positive or neutral and is not the same as *"dirty"* or *"raw"*; it specifically means it reminds you of fresh grass or plants.
Synonymer
herbal (Describes flavors or smells like herbs in general; not limited to grass but often used in a similar way for food and drink.)
|
vegetal (Common in wine and coffee descriptions; suggests plant-like flavors, including but not limited to grassy notes.)
Antonymer
fruity (Describes flavors or smells like fruit, often used as a contrasting description in tasting notes.)
|
smoky (Describes a burnt-wood or smoke flavor or smell, very different from fresh, plant-like grassy notes.)
