那著火的房子就在我家隔壁。2、部分表示方位、處所、時(shí)間副詞作定語(yǔ)。如here,there,above,below,upstairs.downstairs.

outside,inside,around.today,nearby

等常作后置定語(yǔ)。如：Aboyoutsideiswaitingforyou.Peoplethereareveryfriendly.Themanupstairsismakinganoise.3、形容詞修飾復(fù)合不定代詞時(shí)應(yīng)后置Ihavesomethingimportanttotellyou.Thereisnothingserious.Thereisnobodysuitableforthejob.4、else

和remaining
