GRAMMAR COMMENT: Adjectives as abstract nouns
| Grammar:There are few adjectives we can use as abstract nouns.Out with the old, in with the new! I believe in the supernatural! The good, the bad, and the ugly. Adjectives as abstract nouns use a singular verb: The unknown is often very frightening. Adjectives are used in the English language to describe different objects, people or places, adding detail to any sentence or description. However, words in the English language are adaptable to many different sentences and situations. The same adjectives that are used as descriptive words in one sentence can also be used as nouns. It all depends upon what adjectives you are using and how they are being used. |
Exercise1. Translate the following sentences with underlined adjectives (as abstract nouns) into Russian:
1.The wounded were taken to the nearest hospital.
2.I live next to the nursing home for the very old.
3.The young don’t seem interested in politics nowadays.
4. He gave all his money for the poor.
5.The rich don’t understand our problems
