IX. THE ADJECTIVE – ИМЯ ПРИЛАГАТЕЛЬНОЕ

 

Имя прилагательное (The Adjective) обозначает отличительный признак предмета, лица или явления и отвечает на вопрос какой?. В зависимости от характера признака все прилагательные подразделяются на качественные и относительные. Качественные прилагательные (Qualitative Adjectives) обозначают личный признак предмета или лица: great, nice, difficult. Относительные прилагательные (Relative Adjectives) обозначают признак предмета опосредованно, через отношение к другим понятиям: веществу – woolen, wooden, golden, пространству – Italian, American, времени – weekly, daily, и т.д. Они не могут иметь степеней сравнения, так как нельзя сказать more wooden – более деревянный, less golden – менее золотой.
