The characteristics of adjective phrases There are several

characteristics of adjective phrases, which make them very easy

to distinguish from ordinary adjectives. some characteristics of

an adjective phrase.

REQUIRES SUBJECT

The first feature of an adjective phrase is that it requires a

subject, just like any other adjective. Besides that, the adjective

phrase must also stay behind the subject.

example:

-i live in quiet small but really cheap boarding house (true)

-quiet small but really cheap, i live in a boarding house (wrong)

CAN BE AN ADJUNCT OF AN ADJECTIVE

that can be an adjunct. in english, adjunct is a series of words to

add a description in a sentence. The function of the adjunct in a

sentence does not affect grammar, but what is affected is the

completeness / breadth of the information. An adjective phrase

is a type of phrase that can become an adjunct.

example:

-please wash the dishes in the sink right now

-i'm the one to get hurt when you're in pain

-she never feels alone living by herself.

HAVE MORE THAN ONE COMPONENT

An adjective phrase has more than one component. In just one

adjective phrase, you can include the adjective, adverb, and

determiner at once.

example:

-she made a very delicious chocolate cake when she was here.

-afraid of the dark is way scarier than afraid of the ghosts.

-some poor countries are arising since the industry revolution

4.0 starts.

CAN BE MODIFIED AND MODIFY OBJECTIONS

Just like an adjective, an adjective phrase has the ability to

modify the object it is embedded in.

example:

-i saw a tall young handsome boy when i was in the park.

-please let it become our white little lie. Apart from modifying

objects, adjective phrases can also be formed from adjectives

modified by other objects.

MUST MEET ADJECTIVE ORDER PRINCIPLES

In grammar rules, there is such a thing as an adjective order. if

defined, the adjective order is the order in which the adjectives

are placed in a sentence. according to English grammar rules,

the correct order of adjective orders includes:

-quartity / number.

-quality.
-size.

-age

-shape

-color

- proper adjective (nationality, place of origin, material, etc)

-purpose / qualifier.

There are several types of modifications that can be done by an

adjective phrase, from modifying, datermining, to intensifying.

Three things that can modify an adjective phrase pattern are

called modifier, determiner, and intensifier. the meaning and

example of the application of three things are:

MODIFIER + ADJECTIVE

modifier in English is a word, phrase, or clause that functions to

change the word it is attached to. as the name suggests,

modifiers can modify an adjective, add meaning, even embody

new meanings. which can be a modifier include other adjectives,

adverbs, infinitives, and prepositional phrases. You can see

examples of adjective phrases with modifiers (the one

underlined is the modifier).

example:

-i bought a fancy red tie when i visited the big shop (adjective +

adjectives)

-she barely smiles when i told her somr jokes (adverb +

adjectivee)

-we cannot wish for something that is impossible to happen

(adjective + infinitive )

-i'm so afraid of losing you, i don't want to be left again

(adjective + prepositional phrase)

DETERMINER + ADJECTIVE
determiner is useful for making a meaning more specific. in the

part of speech, there are many types of determiners, for example

article (definite / indefinite), demonstratives, and quantifiers.

The determiner is most often used in an adjective phrase.

example:

- please give me some warm orange juice!

-he wants that bulky black motorcycle right now!

-they didn't share any false information, sir

- my title brother asked me to buy three sweet pineapple

popsicles.
INTENSIFIER + ADJECTIVE

is an adjective phrase that is formed from a combination of

intensifier and adjective. In English, intersifier means words that

can be used to emphasize something / show intensity. The most

common examples of intersifiers are very, really, extremely,

rarely, barely, etc.

example:

-he was hardly happy when we got there to see him

-i'm really curious about your feeling towards her

-it's extremely hard to say goodbye to my ex-boyfriend, but i'll

learn to let her go

-this is so delicious, different from other coffee in its class .

that's a complete explanation of the meaning of an adjective

phrase, a component, accompanied by an example sentence.
