What is proper adjective and proper noun?

Answer 1

Most people should be familiar with the concept of a proper noun, referring to the specific name of a person, place or thing. A proper noun would always be capitalized: Shakespeare, Los Angeles, Honda, etc. In this same manner, a proper noun can be converted into a proper adjective in order to describe another common noun. A proper adjective, such as Japanese or Canadian would also be capitalized, since it was formed from a proper noun such as Japan or Canada.

Answer 2

A proper noun is the name of a specific person place or thing. A proper noun is always capitalized. Examples:

• William Shakespeare
• Paris, France
• Christianity

A proper adjective is an adjective derived from a proper noun. A proper adjective is always capitalized. Examples:

• Shakespearean (costumes)
• Parisian (nights) and French (fries)
• Christian (churches)

Answer 3

Demonstrative adjectives are this and that, and the plurals these and those.

Proper adjectives are the adjective forms of proper nouns (e.g. Shakespearean from the proper noun Shakespeare).
