多个形容词修饰名词的顺序
多个形容词修饰名词时,其顺序为:
限定词--数词--【描绘形容词大小(长短高低)形容词-形状形容词-年龄(新旧)形容词-颜色形容词-国籍形容词-材料形容词-用途(类别)形容词-名次】a small round table
a tall gray building
a dirty old brown shirt
a famous German medical school
an expensive Japanese sports car
一般与被修饰名词关系密切的形容词靠近名词;如果几个形容词的重要性差不多,音节少的形容词在前,音节多的方在后,在不能确定时,可参照下表:
限定词+数量词(序数词在前,基数词在后)+性状形容词+大小、长短、高低等形体+
those + three + beautiful + large + square
新旧+颜色+国籍+材料+名词
old + brown + wood + table
部分以a-开头的形容词只能作表语或补足语,不能作定语。
这类形容词有:alike、alive、alone、afraid、ashamed、able、awake等。
例如:The twins are very much alike.(这对双胞胎非常像。)
The little boy was left alone.(这小男孩被独自留下了。)
The little girl has fallen asleep.(这小女孩已经睡着了。)
我们不能说:the alike twins
an alone little boy
an asleep girl
