Dictionary Strategy

Compounds adjectives made up of an adjective + noun + -ed or a noun + -ing form usually have their own dictionary entries. However, compound adjectives made up of an adverb + past participle do not have their own entries, as the meaning is similar to the meaning of the headword.

Tạm dịch

Chiến lược từ điển

Tính từ ghép được tạo thành từ tính từ + danh từ + -ed hoặc danh từ + -ing thường có mục từ điển riêng. Tuy nhiên, tính từ ghép được tạo thành từ trạng từ + quá khứ phân từ không có mục riêng vì nghĩa tương tự như nghĩa của từ đầu.

VOCAB BOOST!

Not all compound adjectives, especially those formed from adverb + past participle, appear in a dictionary because they are formed from other words. You should be able to work out the meaning of most of them from the words which form them. For example, a highly paid person is someone who is paid a lot of money.

(TĂNG TỪ VỰNG!

Không phải tất cả các tính từ ghép, đặc biệt là những tính từ được hình thành từ trạng từ + quá khứ phân từ, đều xuất hiện trong từ điển vì chúng được hình thành từ những từ khác. Bạn sẽ có thể tìm ra ý nghĩa của hầu hết chúng từ những từ tạo nên chúng. Ví dụ, người được trả lương cao là người được trả nhiều tiền.)

5 Read the Vocab boost! box. Then complete the second part of each sentence with an explanation. Try not to repeat the words from the compound adjective.

(Đọc khung Tăng từ vựng! Sau đó hoàn thành phần thứ hai của mỗi câu với lời giải thích. Cố gắng không lặp lại các từ trong tính từ ghép.)
