They are always invariable, both in gender and number.

TODO: to be decider whether they should precede or follow the nouns which they modify. In some languages (e.g. Italian), both position are possible with a subtle difference in meaning. We better make a simple about their position, I propose the noun comes first because is more important.

They could be stacked in any order, I propose the most important should come first (this should be a general syntactic criterion without exceptions, whenever order is free: what comes first is connsidered more important).

No Royal Order of Adjectives as in English. That adds nothing but more complexity requiring more memorization of rules.
