compound adjectives的應用

compound adjectives 即係由兩個字或以上組成既adjectives
好多時候都係加hyphen去連住d字去組成一個compound adjective
而且有唔同類型

1. adj / adv + past participle
本來既形容詞或者副詞加左過去分詞之後會變成另外一個意思既compound adjective

left + handed
a left-handed tennis player
一個用左手既網球手

warm + blooded
cold-blooded animals
冷血動物

deeply + rooted
deeply rooted beliefs
根深柢固既信念

2. Adj / adv / noun + present participle
有d時候唔係加過去分詞, 而係加現在分詞

e.g. good + looking
a good-looking guy
一個外表端好既男仔

3.
有一個常見例子
Peter is eight years old.
Peter is an eight-year-old boy.
eight-year-old 就係一個compound adjective
不過記住year係伊度係冇s既
