2. 形容词在句中的位置
有的形容词放在被修饰的名词之前,称为前置形容词;少数形容词放在被修饰的名词之后,称为后置形容词。
1)当名词被多个前置形容词修饰时,形容词之间有一个先后顺序问题。一般规则为:
(限定词)→一般描绘性形容词→表示大小、长短、高低的形容词→表示年龄、新旧的形容词→表示国籍、地区、出处的形容词→表示物质、材料的形容词→(名词)。 用一句话来说就是“美小圆旧黄,法国木书屋”。如:
There is a famous fine old stone bridge near the village.
村子附近有一座著名的漂亮的古代石桥。
I bought a cheap blue plastic pencil box yesterday.
昨天我买了一个便宜的蓝色塑料铅笔盒
They have got such a round brown wooden table.
