MODIFIER: a word or group of words that gives additional information about another word. Modifiers can be adjectives (such as fierce in the fierce
dog), adverbs (such as loudly in The dog barked loudly), or phrases (such as with a short tail in the dog with a short tail).
Longman English Dictionary
A PREMODIFIER comes before the head word it modifies. A POSTMODIFIER follows it.
