多个形容词修饰名词的顺序

多个形容词修饰名词时,其顺序为:

  限定词--数词--描绘词--(大小,长短,形状,新旧,颜色) --出处--材料性质,类别--名词

   a small round table

   a tall gray building

   a dirty old brown shirt

   a famous German medical school

   an expensive Japanese sports car

典型例题:

1) Tony is going camping with ___ boys. 

  A. little two other B. two little other  C. two other little  D. little other two

  答案:C。由"限定词--数词--描绘词--(大小,长短,形状,新旧,颜色) --性质--名词"的公式可知数词,描绘词,性质依次顺序,只有C符合答案。

2) One day they crossed the ____bridge behind the palace.

 A. old Chinese stone   B. Chinese old stone  C. old stone Chinese  D. Chinese stone old

 答案A. 几个形容词修饰一个名词,他们的排列顺序是:年龄,形状,大小+颜色+来源+质地+用途+国家+名词。

3) ---- How was your recent visit to Qingdao?

 ---- It was great. We visited some friends,and spent the ___days at the seaside.

 A. few last sunny  B. last few sunny  C. last sunny few  D. few sunny last

答案:B。本题考查多个形容词的排序问题。一般与被修饰形容词关系密切的形容词靠近名词;如果几个形容词的重要性差不多,音节少的形容词在前,音节多的方在后,在不能确定时,可参照下表:

限定词+数量词(序数词在前,基数词在后)+性状形容词+大小、长短、高低等形体+

those + three + beautiful + large + square 

新旧+颜色+国籍+材料+名词

old + brown + wood + table
