在以上词例中,使用名词与使用形容词或分词并没有什么区别。
3.代替带's的所有格定语--在名词前加上定冠词the就可以代替名词的所有格,但是这个名词是专有名词。
the Tom composition=Tom's composition
the Carter grin=Carter's grin
4.代替定语从句。
investment money= money that is set apart for investment.
the milk boy= the boy who brings the milk.
二、名词定语与被修饰语之间的语义关系
作定语的名词都是后面一个名词的修饰语,但是它们之间的关系却各有不同。
1.名词定语表示逻辑上的主语,被修饰的词表示宾语。
a department decision(a decision which is made by the department)
the volcano eruption(the eruption that is made by the volcano)
有时正好相反,名词定语相当于宾语,而被修饰的部分表示主语:
a drug addict(a person who is addicted to drug)
an animal trainer(a man who trains the animal)
2.名词定语作状语,被修饰语相当于谓语。在这一类结构中,表示谓语的名词常由动名词或动作名词来充当。
impulse buying=buying on impulse
instrument flying=flying by means of instrument
3.名词定语表示同位关系。这种用法可以说明某人的职业、职位。
Judge Darling Singer Carpenter Cardinal Nelson。
还可以表示特征、身份:
a supplier country= a country which is a supplier
a killer shark= a shark who is a killer
her lawyer brother=her brother who is a lawyer
