Nowns

 

Persons, places, things, living creatures, Ideas and concepts. 

Why are living creatures not a thing, while dead creatures are not a thing? 

Nowns in the house: 

Book Cup Phone Computer Printer Mouse Chair Cat (it is not a thing cat, so it is _ _ _ _ _).

Adjectives

Adjectives modify a nown or pronown. There are three types of adjectives, descriptive, proper and predicate.

Descriptive: Green, blue, larger 

Proper:  A proper nown pretending to be an Adjective; French pastery. 

Predicate: Comes after tha nown and is joined using a verb: Stale bread (Stale is the desciptive adjective) can be written The bread is stale (Stale is the predicate adjective). 

You do get the feeling they are making all this stuff up.

 

Adjectives in the home. 

Thick book  Dictionary gives thick the status of a nown, adjective and adverb. 

Coffee cup  Meets the rules; dictionary says it's a nown, but it describes the cup. 

Mobile Phone Mobile is a concept, here it descibes the phone. Dictionary says it is a adjective when used as a concept; nown when descibing stuff blowing in the wind; so when is concept not a nown. There is more to this concept stuff and I would love to be able to pin it down. 

Stupid Computer Stupid the dictionary says can be a Nown and a adjective.

Lounge Chair 

Alive Cat  Just threw this in to make it clear we are talking about a living creature nown, not a thing nown.
