FUNCTION (syntactic function – their function in the sentence)
PARADIGM – adjectives can be compared
ADJECTIVE PHRASESgeneral characteristics
syntactic functions of adjectives
DEPENDENT INDEPENDENT
DEPENDENT FUNCTION = ATTRIBUTIVE FUNCTIONAdjective Phrase is a PART OF ANOTHER PHRASE, i.e. a part of the NP, its function is to modify the meaning of the HEAD NOUN.• Typically, an attributive adjective follows the determiner and precedes the noun: NP[a AP[very beautiful] painting] or NP[an AP[expensive] gift]• However, in some cases the adjective follows the HEAD NOUN: NP[somebody AP[important]] or NP[secretary AP[general]]
INDEPENDENT FUNCTION = PREDICATIVE FUNCTIONAdjective Phrase has an INDEPENDENT FUNCTION IN THE SENTENCE, i.e. it functions as s SENTENCE ELEMENT.Cs – subject complement: That painting is AP[very beautiful].Co – object complement: He made his parents AP[proud].
The policeman kicked the door AP[open].

ADJECTIVE PHRASE is a phrase which has an adjective as its head, but it need not only contain the head.
TWO TYPES of complex adjective phrases:◦ APs with PREMODIFICATION:
AP=Adj e.g. intelligentAP=Adv+Adj e.g. very intelligentAP=Adj+Adv e.g. intelligent enough, intelligent enough
◦ APs with COMPLEMENTATION:AP=Adj+PP e.g. intelligent beyond your expectationsAP=Adj+Clnon-fine.g. intelligent enough to quit that jobAP=Adj+Clfin e.g. certain that he will succeed
FORMS OF THE ADJECTIVE PHRASE
