Number Noun Adjective Examples

It’s very common in English to put two words together in order to form an adjective. In this lesson, you’ll learn how to put a number and a noun together to form an adjective that describes another noun.

Example:

number noun noun result
two
car
garage
two-car garage
25
story
building
25-story building
five
star
hotel
five-star hotel
48
hour
wait
48-hour wait

You must hyphenate the number word and the noun. These two words together function as an adjective.

right arrow   –  (hyphen)

Notice that numbers ten and under are usually spelled out completely. If you write 2-car garage, for instance, it looks awkward.
