Most commonly, an adjective is a word used to describe a noun, for example a hot day or a good lunch.

A noun used to describe another noun is called an attributive noun (or noun adjunct). Examples are (attributive nouns in bold):

  • almond cookies
  • door hinge
  • cabin door
  • painter pants
  • cabbage soup
  • Lincoln penny
  • hot dog roll
  • car trouble
  • glasses case
  • shell beads
