Level 2 nd year Bac cycle Subject Area Objectives by the end of this presentation, students would be able to: Identify compound adjectives.

Words like densely-populated are compound adjectives and they are made up of two or more words, normally with hyphens between them. Something that is dense contains a lot of things or people in a small area. Thus a densely-populated town or city is one with a high population count within the city boundaries. A densely-wooded hill would be one that is difficult to get through because the trees are so close together. Home Page Densely-populated city densely-wooded hill Next
5
Adjective or adverb plus past participle is one of the most common patterns for forming compound adjectives. Some common examples would include: cold-bloodedkind-heartedold-fashionedopen-minded brightly-litdeeply-rooteddensely-populatedwell-behaved Home Page Next

She lived in an old-fashioned house, but was kind-hearted and open- minded. Nevertheless, she held deeply-rooted beliefs about the sanctity of marriage. The dimly- lit streets in our town encourage burglars. The brightly-lit streets in our town discourage burglars. Home Page Brightly-litDimly-lit Next
7
Note that adverb / past participle combinations when they are used with a copular verb like be or seem, and come after the noun they modify, are not hyphenated: The streets in our town are dimly / brightly lit and encourage / discourage burglars. Home Page Next
8
There are sometimes many possible combinations, e.g. broad-minded, narrow-minded, absent- minded, strong-minded, as well as open- minded. It is partly a matter of knowing which adjectives or adverbs collocate or go with which participles and nouns. We have brightly-lit streets, but also brightly-coloured dresses or swimsuits or sweets.
