同普通形容詞唔同嘅地方主要係區別詞唔可以做謂語，只可以作為定語修飾名詞，或者同結構助詞「的」（「嘅」）構成「的字結構」（名詞性結構），所以叫做「非謂形容詞」。
The main difference with ordinary adjectives is that the distinguishing word cannot be used as a predicate, but can only be used as a definite to modify the noun, or with the structural particle "of" ("嘅") to form a "word structure" (noun structure), so it is called a "non-predicate adjective".
