首先, 你要了解什麼是 attribute ?
Attribute (noun) = 定語
Attributive (adjective) = 定語的, 只是 attribute 的 adjective form
ATTRIBUTE is an adjective or noun preceding a noun and describing/expressing a characteristic of the noun.
Attribute 主要用于修飾句子中的名詞. 而定語從句的位置常常是在被修飾的名詞前面
a beautiful girl
beautiful 是 attribute (定語), beautiful 這個 adjective 是形容女孩, beautiful 並且稱 attributive adjective.
Compare to predicative adjective
The girl is beautiful.
girl - subject
beautiful - predicative adjective
is - linking verb
A predicate adjective modifies the subject of the sentence, and is connected to the subject by a linking verb.
a school bus
school 是 attribute (定語), school 這個 noun 是形容什麼 bus, 分類什麼 bus
除了 adjective 與 noun 之外, attribute 可以是其他的 phrases, adjective phrase, noun phrase, attribute 可以在被修飾的名詞後面, 定語的位置常常是緊跟在被修飾的名詞
