Introducing the Adjectives
Adjectives
Definition: word used to modify a noun or
pronoun.
Often answers the question "What kind of
________ is it?"
– The red truck sped by us.
– What kind of truck? -- red
– The good mechanic passed our car.
3 Types of Adjectives Usage
Attributive: attributes a characteristic to
the noun -- The good book
Predicate: Assigns a characteristic to the
subject of the sentence -- The book is good.
Substantive: the adjective acts as a stand
alone noun -- The good die young.
These three usages are the tricky part of
adjectives. Note the differences well.

Attributive Position (+ Art.)
Attributive: the Adj. has the Article
– o[ a]gaqo>j lo<goj -- the good word
– o[ lo<goj o[ a]gaqo<j -- the good word
– e]gw< ei]mi> o[ poimh>n o[ kalo<j
– I am the good shepherd (Jn. 10:11).
Predicate Position (No Art.)
Predicate position the Adj. has no Article
but the noun has a Art.
– a]gaqo>j o[ lo<goj -- the word is good.
– o[ lo<goj a]gaqo>j -- the word is good.
– kai> o[ a@nqrwpoj ou$toj di<kaioj
– and this man was righteous (Lk. 2:25).
Predicate or Attributive?
Sometimes both the noun and the adjective
do not have the article in which case context
must determine whether it is predicate or
attributive
– kai> a]nh>r a]gaqo>j kai> di<kaioj
– and a good and righteous man (Lk 23:50)
Substantive Use -- No noun
The substantive often has the Article but no
accompanying noun
– oi[ de> di<koioi ei]j zwh>n ai]w<nion
– and the righteous unto eternal life
The "is" verb PAI -- ei]mi<
Singular
Plural

e]sme<n we
are
ei#

e]ste< you are
e]sti<(n) he/she/it is
