Attributive and Predicative Adjectives

Read the following sentences loudly!

The old man is starring at the blue sea.

He bought two brown balls.

She had a beautiful smile.

Tina wears her new dress.

Her smile is beautiful.

Adjectives in the first position - before the noun - are called ATTRIBUTIVE

adjective. Those in the second position - after the noun - are called

PREDICATIVE adjectives. Notice that predicative adjectives do not occur

immediately after the noun.

(*Exercise 2 : find the attributive and predicative adjective)

Attributive only

There are some adjectives which can only be used before a noun, in the attributive position. For instance, we talk about the main problem but cannot say, the problem was main.

Adjectives which occur only in the attributive position are generally those which identify something as being of a particular type. For instance, we can talk about a financial decision where financial distinguishes this from other types of decision, e.g.: medical, political. These groups of adjectives are often referred to as classifying adjectives.

For example:

This is the main reason.* This reason is main. (ungrammatical)

This is the former president.* This president is former. (ungrammatical)

A chemical reaction. (Not, a reaction which was/is chemical)

The phonetic alphabet (Not, the alphabet is phonetic)

It was an indoor pool. (Not, the pool was indoor)

Predicative only

There are some adjectives which only usually occur in the predicative position, as complements of be or other link verbs. For instance, you can say “He felt glad”, but wouldn’t normally talk about a glad person.

Adjectives which usually occur in the predicative position include those which describe feelings, such as

afraid glad

ready

sure

sorry

upset

Example:

She felt afraid. (but not, an afraid girl)

My daughter is upset. (but not, my upset daughter)

They also include a group of adjectives with prefix a-, such as:

Asleep Alive

Alone

Ashamed

Awake

Aware

Example:

I like being alone. (But not, I like being an alone person) The baby’s asleep. (But not, the asleep baby)
