所谓名词修饰语(noun modifiers)就是可以用来修饰名词的词类、短语和从句。
可以修饰名词的词或词类甚多,包括下面10种:
㈠形容词:good, bad, able, honest 等
㈡复合形容词:four-sided, dark-eyed, three-hour, high-rise, poverty-stricken 等
㈢现在分词:smiling, amusing, annoying, astonishing, thrilling 等
㈣过去分词:lost, damaged, frightened, disappointed, crowded, burnt, stolen 等
㈤名词:a flower garden, a basketball match, a tea party, an emergency meeting 等
㈥动名词:walking stick, dining-room, laughing-stock, steering committee 等
㈦所有格:Johns hat, tomorrows weather forecast, two hours discussion 等
㈧副词:the statement above, the branches overhead, the bedroom upstairs 等
㈨数目词:many, few, a few, some 等
㈩数量词:much, little, a little 等
这里有些事要注意。首先,除了复合形容词、所有格、数目词、数量词可以超过一个字之外,其余的名词修饰语,都是单字单词的。其次,除了副词(通常是时间性或地点性的)出现在名词后面之外,其余的都出现在名词前面。例如:
① Jason is an honest man.
