How to add adjectives in Japanese?

So say I was saying the word “snow” is there a particle to make the word “snowy” or like “mud” to the word“muddy”?

  1. Here are some possibilities:

    っぽい

    らしい

    みたい

    のような

    だらけ

    まみれ

  2. No, there’s no consistent way to do that. ‘snowy’ won’t even always be the same word, but for like ‘a snowy day’ it’s just ‘yuki ga furu hi’, a day when it is snowing, but if by ‘snowy’ you mean snow-covered or deep snow or a season when it frequently snows you need to use those expressions instead.
