| Research Abstract |
In English, unlike in Japanese, attributive adjectives are identical in form both in phrases and in words, because they are lacking in inflectional agreement suffixes. Due to this property of English adjectives, it is sometimes difficult to decide whether a certain 'adjective-noun' forms are qualified as phrases or words, as is illustrated with the compound 'small car driver', where the expression 'small car' seems to retain a semantic compositionally, or with 'Japanese small car', where the sequence 'Japanese small' exhibits a deviant word order.
Furthermore, there are so-called relational adjectives as well as qualifying adjectives in English, and the latter are formed by attaching various Latinate suffixes to nouns, and they are considered to have a classifying function; 'relational adjective-noun' forms, therefore, are usually regarded as having a naming function.
