Hi forum!
Following question:
manufacturing supervisor = noun phrase, consisting of a present participle (which functions as an adjective) and a noun
talented person = noun phrase, consisting of a past participle (which funcions as an adjective) and a noun
operations manager = noun phrase, consisting of two nouns, and the first noun functions as an adjective
as in:
"The only white people who came to our house were welfare workers and bill collectors."
1. Are all my stated claims OK? :silly:
2. Can the nouns in bold be called adjectives?
Thanks!!
