Имя прилагательное
(The Аdjective)
Прилагательные обозначают признаки или свойства предметов. По своему составу они делятся на простые (fine, sharp), производные (homeless, unhappy) и сложные (first-class, good-looking). По своему значению - на качественные (big, heavy) и относительные(wooden, square).
В предложении прилагательные выполняют следующие функции:
1) определения к существительному.
This is a very difficult question. Это очень трудный вопрос.
2) именной части составного сказуемого.
This question is very difficult. Этот вопрос очень трудный.
Прочитайте и запомните основные словообразовательные суффиксы и префиксы прилагательных.
a) un- unhappy, uncomfortable ir- irregular
in- independent inter- international
im- impossible post- post-war
dis- disappointing
non- non-governmental
b) - ful careful, useful - ible possible

Как и в русском языке, некоторые английские прилагательные могут употребляться в значении существительных. В таких случаях они употребляются с определённым артиклем и обозначают группу лиц, обладающих данным признаком:
the rich (богачи, богатые), the poor (бедняки, бедные), the sick (больные), the Russians (русские), the English (англичане).
Для обозначения определённых лиц употребляются сочетания прилагательных с существительными. Например:
a poor man - бедняк two poor men - два бедняка
a Russian - русский two Germans - два немца
Особенностью прилагательных английского языка является то, что они не изменяются по падежам, лицам и числам.
