Voici un exercice relativement facile sur les adjectifs composés (COMPOUND ADJECTIVES)

Les adjectifs en anglais se situent toujours avant le nom qu'ils qualifient. Ex:he has got blue eyes.

Certains adjectifs sont composés («compound adjectives») : ils sont composés d'un adjectif et d'un nom ou un verbe auquel on a rajouté un suffixe (ing ou ed) et ils qualifient un autre nom.

Ex: Eva Longoria is a good-looking woman.

adj-BV+ing +nom

Ex: Will Smith is a brown-eyed man.

adj-nom+ed + nom

1. Sam has got blue eyes. Sam is a ............... man
2. Susan has got dark hair. Susan is a ................ woman.
3. Tom and Ted have got green eyes.They are ................... boys
4. William writes with his right hand.He is a ............... person.
