This article examines a theoretical point of view about the organisation of adjectives. Two major classes are proposed : objectives and subjectives. Objective adjectives ascribe to their nouns, values founded on normative perceptual identification ; subjective adjectives expresses affective participation and evaluative judgements about objects, events and facts. The formers plays an important role in the recognition processes of discourse reference, the latter constitutes the evaluative knowledge activated to denote the referents of discourse. The principal operation of adjectives is to direct and adjust the denotative description and the psychological assessment about the referents of discourse. In an empirical study, a list of 1600 adjectival lexical entries is tested, both categories were composed by 75 participant-students in social sciences at the university of Paris 8 (psychology, sociology, educational sciences and language sciences). Semantic and pragmatic hypothesis are proposed and some research directions examined
