In English, the general order of adjectives, when multiple adjectives are used to describe a noun, follows a specific pattern. The order is:

  1. Quantity or number
  2. Opinion
  3. Size
  4. Age
  5. Shape
  6. Color
  7. Origin
  8. Material
  9. Purpose

Given the adjectives you provided:

  • six (quantity)
  • large (size)
  • blue (color)
  • American (origin)

The correct order would be:

  1. six (quantity)
  2. large (size)
  3. blue (color)
  4. American (origin)

So, "six" should come first in the sequence.
