Practice Here are some text excerpts to use for practice finding adjectives. We have provided a few suggestions about what to look for. Remember that there may not be examples in these texts of everything listed here. We encourage you to explore texts of your own choosing to find additional examples. Find all the adjectives. Be sure not to include nouns or verbs modifying other nouns. If you need to, use the degree word test or the seems-test to help you. Label the semantic class of a few of the adjectives you find. Analyze the morphology of some of the adjectives you find. Identify some different derivational and / or inflectional affixes that occur on adjectives. Label the function of each adjective (or more accurately, of each adjective phrase) as a modifier or as a subjective complement. Label the position of each adjective phrase as prenominal, postnominal, or predicate (or other, if none of these). Identify any participial adjectives in the excerpt. Identify any direct objects. Identify any subjective complements that are not adjective phrases. Are there any PP or NP subjective complements in the excerpt? Discuss, briefly, any problematic examples that you found, and how you analyzed them. Did they turn out to be adjective phrases or phrases of some other category? What made them difficult to analyze?

Her name was Rixey Bloomy and she was one of New York’s hottest personalities. She was thirty-six years old and wore the most expensive leather trouser suit and zebra-skin ankle boots, and carried a matching furry handbag. Her hair was as bouncy as if she had just walked out of a shampoo commercial, her lips were plump and luscious (they had been plumped up by one of New York’s top plastic surgeons), and her eyes were searingly blue. She looked suspiciously at Molly. (From Molly Moon, by Georgia Byng) I know what it is: Am I Jewish …? Yes, I am. From an observant family. During the Occupation, I had false papers and passed as Aryan. And that was how I was assigned to a forced labor unit. When they deported me to Germany, I eluded being sent to a concentration camp. At the depot, nobody knew that I spoke German; it would have aroused suspicion. It was imprudent of me to say those few words to you, but I knew that you would not betray me … (From Night, by Elie Wiesel) The opening moments of “Bullhead” are rich in foreboding and gloom, with a dark wood glimmering into view at the edge of a field. . . A low voice speaks: “Sometimes in a man’s life, stuff happens that makes everyone go quiet.” Over the next two hours, one particular man will loom into being, like the forest. His name is Jacky (Matthias Schoenaerts), a cattle famer in the Flemish-speaking region of Belgium, and you could easily mistake him for a member of his herd. (From “Big Men,” by Anthony Lane, The New Yorker Magazine, February 27, 2012) 168. 4. Diagramming Adv For practice, diagram the following clauses. (a)The crew left early.
