当两个以上形容词修饰一个名词,形容词该如何排列?
当两个以上形容词修饰一个名词,形容词该如何排列?为什么不能说a black new pen,而是说成a new black pen? 这里面有无规则可循? 如果你记住opshacom这个为帮助记忆而杜撰的词, 就能掌握英语中形容词排列的顺序。opshacom中p代表opinion,指表示人们观点的形容词,如 beautiful, horrible, lovely, nice等; sh代表shape,指表示形状的形容词,如 long, short, round, narrow 等; a代表age,指表示年龄、时代的形容词,如old, new, young等; c代表colour,指表示颜色的形容词,如red, black, orange等; o代表origin,指表示国籍、地区的形容词,如british, canadian, german等; m代表material,指表示材料的形容词,如plastic, metal, aluminium等。英语中这六类形容词连用时就按上述先后顺序排列, 如a nice long new black british plastic pen 当然,实际语言使用中不可能出现这么多形容词连用的情况。
请根据形容词排列规则完成以下练习:
1>.she has a ___ jacket.(leather,brown,beautiful)
2>.he has a ___ car. (american,long,red)
3>.they live in a ___ house. (old,beautiful)
4>.we have a ___ table. (antique,small,wooden)
5>.he has a ___ jumper. (woollen, lovely, red)
6>.she has a ___ ring. (diamond,new,fabulous)
