Compound adjectives:

A- Formation and pronunciation

A compound adjective is formed from two words, and occasionally three. The second part is often a present participle (e.g. good- looking) or a past participle (e.g. well-known). They usually have a hyphen before a noun, (e.g. a well-known actress, a good-looking man ) and we usually pronounce both parts with equal stress.

B- Describing people.

Many compound adjective describe a person’s appearance, character and situation.

This is Bill. He isn’t well-known(= famous), he isn’t well-off(= rich), and nobody says he is good-looking(= very nice/ attractive to look at). But he is a nice man – kind, and easy going (= relaxed and easy to be with). He is wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a brand- new (= completely new ) hat.
