57: 什么是形容词?

Question 57: What is an adjective?

Answer: An adjective is a word that we use to describe a noun. Sometimes we say they 'qualify' the noun. For example, if we write -- 'His car was stolen' -- it doesn't tell us much about the car (the noun). However, if we add some adjectives to describe it or 'qualify' it, we can get a lot more information.

'His new, red, sports car was stolen' -- 'new', 'red' and 'sports' are all adjectives.

问题:什么是形容词?

回答: 形容词是用来描述名词的词。有时我们说这些词“限定修饰”名词。比如,如果我们说"His car was stolen",我们对car(名词)并不了解多少。但是,如果我们加一些形容词来描述或限定它的话,我们可以得到更多的信息。

'His new, red, sports car was stolen' -- 'new', 'red' 和 'sports' 都是形容词。
