Esimerkit
- In "this big house", "big" is attributive, whereas in "this house is big", it is predicative.
- Since both Attributes and Adjuncts recursively expand N-bar into N-bar, it seems clear that the two have essentially the same function, so that Attributes are simply pronominal Adjuncts (though we shall continue to follow tradition and refer to attributive premodifiers as Attributes rather than Adjuncts).
- In "this tiger is a man-eater," "man" is an attributive noun.
- In "this big house," "big" is an attributive, while in "this house is big," it is a predicative.
