noun

A noun phrase is either a single noun or pronoun or any group of words containing a noun or a pronoun that function together as a noun or pronoun, as the subject or object of a verb.
For example, ‘they’, ‘books’, and ‘the books’ are noun phrases, but ‘book’ is just a noun, as you can see in these sentences (in which the noun phrases are all in bold)
Example 1:
Shaggy: Do you like books?
Bean : Yes, I like them.
Shaggy: Do you like books over there?
Bean : Yes, they are nice.
Shaggy: Do you like the book I brought yesterday?
Bean : Yes, I like it. (Note: ‘It’ refers to ‘the book’, not ‘book’)
Example 2:
Nicko was late.
(‘Nicko’ is the noun phrase functioning as the subject of the verb.)
Some noun phrases are short: The students
Some are long: The very tall education consultant
Structures of noun phrases:
▪ A beautiful old painting on the wall
The structure of this noun phrase contains three sections:
Pre-modifier Head noun Post-modifier
A beautiful old painting on the wall
A beautiful old painting -
- painting on the wall
This is the table of the adjectives that are combined with the nouns:
Determiner Opinion adjectives
Descriptive adjectives Nouns
General specific size shape age colour nationality material
A Lovely comfortable big - - - - Wooden chair
The Cheap - - - new black German - car
Large round - - - metal table
When you use a noun in front of another noun, you never put adjectives between them. You put adjectives in front of the first noun.
Example: We just spoke with a young American boy.
Noun phrase can be in form of gerund (Vbase+ing) or gerund and other nouns compounding.
Example: passing the exam watching TV
preparing the equipment sliding down a rope
going to school diving board
