Proper adjectives

Eigenschaftswort, n. adjective epithet. Eigenschwingung, /. proper, natural or characteristic vibration. 

Capitalize proper nouns and proper adjectives. If you re not sure what counts as a proper noun or a proper adjective, examples of these are listed below. 

Hyphenate prefixes to proper nouns and adjectives, and retain the capital letter. 

Generally, in text keep all words lowercase, including chemical names and terms, except proper nouns and adjectives. However, there are many exceptions. 

Capitalize adjectives formed from proper names. 

Use commas to separate adjectives of equal emphasis that modify the same noun. To determine if a comma should be used, see if you can insert the word and between the adjectives if the phrase still makes proper sense with the substituted and, use a comma. 

Capitalize proper nouns—the specific names of people, places, and products—and also the adjectives formed from proper nouns. 

Read and revise this last exercise, changing what happens and how it happens, if you want, and eliminating all unnecessary details. Use few adjectives and make those few count. (Roget s Thesaurus can often be more useful than a dictionary in finding the right word to make a scene or physical action come alive.) Now type out the whole scene in proper format, after which it would be helpful to have your teacher, classmates, or friends who are knowledgeable about film read the work and respond to it. 

The suffix like . Hyphenate the suffix like to words of three or more syllables, to two-word compounds used as unit modifiers, to chemical names, and to proper nouns and adjectives. 

Chiral A geometric figure, or group of points is chiral if it is nonsuperimposable on its mirror image [82]. A chiral object lacks all of the second order (improper) symmetry elements, a mirror plane), i center of symmetry), and S rotation-reflection axis). In chemistry, the term is (properly) only applied to entire molecules, not to parts of molecules. A chiral compound may be either racemic or nonracemic. An object that has any of the second order symmetry elements i.e., that is superimposable on its mirror image) is achiral. It is inappropriate to use the adjective chiral to modify an abstract noun one cannot have a chiral opinion and one cannot execute a chiral resolution or synthesis. 

Find the 100 ohm (brown-black-brown) resistor. Note that with inexpensive resistors (the author will resist the temptation to use the word "cheap" or even worse adjectives ), "brown" often looks somewhat like purple or red, especially when viewed with fluorescent light or sunlight. Using the multimeter as an ohmmeter, and calibrating it for "zero ohms," measure the resistance, to make sure that the color code is being read properly. The measured resistance should be 100, plus or minus 10% if the fourth band is silver, which could be anywhere between 90 and 110 ohms. Then find the 330 ohm resistor (orange-orange-brown) and measure its resistance also. Set the multimeter to "OFF."...
