classifying adjective
A classifying adjective is a type of adjective that specifies or identifies the category or class to which a noun belongs. It helps to classify the noun by its function, kind, type, or a group it is part of. Examples include "nuclear energy", "dental hygiene" or "Italian cuisine". These adjectives are generally not gradable, meaning they cannot have comparative or superlative forms.
