如果你记住Opshacom这个为帮助记忆而杜撰的词, 就能掌握英语中形容词排列的顺序。
Opshacom中p代表opinion,指表示人们观点的形容词,如beautiful,horrible,lovely,nice等;
sh代表shape,指表示形状的形容词,如long,short,round, narrow等;
a代表age,指表示年龄、时代的形容词,如old,new,young等;
c代表colour,指表示颜色的形容词,如red,black, orange等;
o代表origin,指表示国籍、地区的形容词,如British,Canadian,German等;
m代表material,指表示材料的形容词,如plastic,metal,aluminium等。
英语中这六类形容词连用时就按上述先后顺序排列, 如a nice long new black British plastic pen 当然,实际语言使用中不可能出现这么多形容词连用的情况.
