英语形容词后置都有哪些情形
今天背单词的时候看到的,说incarnate用作形容词时,通常后置,比如the devil incarnate,the godness incarnate.
书上(Merriam-Webster's Vocabulary Builder 第71页)说,极少数形容词修饰名词时,通常后置,尽管即便这样,也有前置的情形.
我感兴趣的是,还有什么形容词修饰名词的时候后置啊?

1.当形容词修饰由 some-,no-,any和 every-,-thing,-body和-one构成的不定代词时,它置于这些词的后面.如:Every minute there is something exciting going on here.这里每一分钟都有使人兴奋的事情发生.Is there anything important in her article?她的文章里有什么重要之处吗?There is nothing difficult in the world.世上无难事.Have you ever met anyone famous?你曾经见过有名的人物吗?I met someone quite talkative at the party.在聚会上我遇到了一位十分健谈的人.Everything useful in the house was taken away by him by force.房子里每件有用的东西都被他用武力夺去了.
2.带前缀a-的形容词在作定语时,一般放在被修饰的词的后面.如asleep(睡着的),afraid(害怕的),alive(活着的),afloat(漂着的),afire(烧着的)等.例如:There was a child asleep in the bed.一个孩子睡在床上.On their way home,they saw a house afire.在回家的路上,他们看到一座失火的房子.We saw many things afloat.我们看见很多漂着的东西.They are the happiest children alive.他们是当代最幸福的儿童.
3.当某些以-ble或-ible结尾的形容词具有动词色彩,并表示被动意义时,应置于被修饰的词的后面,而且这些形容词大都和形容词最高级或 all,only,every等词连用:His is the earliest edition obtainable.他那本是现在能找到的最早的版本.He is the only person reliable.他是唯一可靠的人.I have tried all means imaginable.我已尝试了一切可想象的方法.Every message transmissible was sent out by them.每一条可播送的消息都被他们发了出去.4.有的形容词如果后面跟着一个关系紧密的介词短语时,这个形容词应后置.例如:The train bound for Los Angeles has just left the station.开往洛杉矶的火车刚刚驶出车站.They need more materials relevant to the present question.他们需要更多的和目前问题有关的资料.This is a question easily accessible to beginners.这是一个易于为初学者理解的问题.People aware of their own shortcomings are wise.知道自己缺点的人是明智的.
5.当一个名词被两个以上的形容词所修饰,同时这些形容词又表示强调意义时,形容词应放在被修饰的名词之后.例如:There are many people in the house,young and old.这座房子里有许多人,年轻的和年老的.We should be prepared to deal with the subversion and sabotage by all our ene-mies,domestic and foreign.我们必须准备对付国内外一切敌人的颠覆和破坏.
6.当形容词前有表示量度的词时,此时形容词应后置.例如:

The soldiers crossed a river 4 miles wide.士兵们渡过了一条四英里宽的河.
7.当形容词前有so,more,most等词修饰时,形容词应后置.例如:
