Is there any recommendation on a useful distinction between a prenominal adjecective and a postnominal one?
It's plausible, depending on whether the language is SV or VS, that one form is essive, and the other descriptive. For an imaginary SV language:
ju floo warb - the box big = the box is big ju warb floo - the big box = the big box Thus, in this case, post-posed adjectives become verbs for "to be X". Paul
