This article shows fairly simple and common description examples to illustrate this concept. Description is a process by which the characteristics, attributes and qualities of an object (person, animal or thing) can be enumerated, without narrating facts within a space and time with other objects.
The objective description is responsible for indicating the characteristics that an object has through the use of the appropriate technical words, in an impartial way and how it can interact with other objects.
The subjective description is intended to show the emotions of an event or object. The feelings that the object may express represent the subjectivity of the author. The use of words can be varied without falling into excesses with vulgar words.
