How do you use truck in a sentence as a noun and adjective?

The word 'truck' is a noun and a verb (not an adjective).The noun 'truck' is a word for a type of vehicle, a word for a thing.A noun functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition.When the noun 'truck' is used to describe another noun, it's functioning as an attributive noun (also called a noun adjunct).When used as an attributive noun, it forms a noun phrase(truck tire or truck route), a group of words based on a noun that functions as a unit in a sentence.Examples of noun phrases in sentences:A truck tire will cost more than a car tire. (subject of the sentence)My dad hung a truck tire from the tree as a swing. (direct object)Traffic on the truck route was congested. (object of the preposition)The truck route is so busy because it's direct. (subject of sentence)The present participle of the verb (trucking) and the past participle of the verb (trucked) also function as adjectives.Examples:My dad works for a trucking company.The trucked shipment arrived before the air freight shipment.


How do you jump start a lorry from another lorry?

Sit back, let me tell you an anecdotal story. Some years ago, I was working as a truck driver/equipment operator/floor hand in the Louisiana oilfields. As I'm coming into work one day, I happen across a freight hauler who had his batteries die on him, and needed a jump start in order to get rolling again. So, I put my pickup truck next to his, and proceeded to pull out a set of jumper cables. Of course, he thought I was crazy, and that I'd never be able to jump start his truck with my pickup. Well, lo and behold, I managed to do it just fine. And you're about to see how. Don't go to the batteries - dead/weak batteries take a lot of energy to charge up, and they put up a lot of resistance. This creates heat, and heat will melt your jumper cables, unless you have some extremely thick, industrial grade ones which were made specifically for that sort of thing. On some N. American truck models, there are posts located on the vehicle specifically for jump starting or charging the vehicle - I'd imagine this would be true for Euro models, but can't say with any certainty. If the truck being jumped does have them, then you need to see where the positive cable goes to - if it ties in to the batteries, forget about it, unless you want to sit for some time to let it charge. Put the positive cable directly to the starter. Bypass the batteries completely. As for your negative cable, you want to be careful about that. People typically ground it to the frame.. if the vehicle has chassis mounted electronics, you do not want to do this. If it has the aforementioned posts, ground it on the ones for the negative cable. If it doesn't, I would err on the side of caution, drive a metal stake into the ground, and use that for ground.
