ACTIVITY3 : What Is a Compound Adjective?
A compound adjective is a combination of two or more words which can perform the role of an adjective in a sentence. A compound adjective is formed by adding a noun, a present participle, or a past participle to the adjective. In some cases, the adjective is preceded by either of these and in other cases, the adjective is followed by either of them. Compound adjectives are mostly hyphenated.
Definition of a Compound Adjective
A compound adjective, according to the Oxford Learner’s Dictionary, is “formed of two or more parts.” According to the Collins Dictionary, “in grammar, a compound noun, adjective, or verb is one that is made up of two or more words, for example fire engine, bottle-green, and force-feed.”
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, “a compound word is two or more words linked together to produce a word with a new meaning.” So, any other part of speech that is combined with an adjective to mean something else and describe the subject or object in a sentence can be said to be a compound adjective.

వెనక్కి తిరిగిరానిది ఏమిటి..?
దేవగిరి రాజ్యాన్ని విరూపాక్ష మహారాజు పాలించేవాడు. ఆయన ప్రతిరోజూ ఆస్థానంలోని ఉద్యోగులతో మాట్లాడేవాడు. అందులో అనేక విషయాలపై చర్చలు కూడా జరిపేవాడు. ఎవరైనా పండిత గోష్ఠిలో అడిగే ప్రశ్నలు నచ్చితే దానికి తగిన బహుమానం కూడా ఇచ్చి వారిని గౌరవించేవాడు. ఒకరోజు పొరుగు రాజ్య పండితుడు చర్చలో పాల్గొనాలని వచ్చాడు. ఈ విషయం ఆ నోటా ఈ నోటా ప్రజలందరికీ తెలిసింది. దాంతో ఆ సమావేశానికి అంతా హాజరయ్యారు. ఆ సభలో రాజుతో సహా అనేక మంది పండితులు.. వచ్చిన పండితుడిని, వారికి నచ్చిన ప్రశ్నలు అడగసాగారు. ఆయన అన్నింటికీ ఎలాంటి తడబాటు లేకుండా సమాధానం చెబుతున్నాడు.
కాసేపటికి మహారాజు.. ‘వచ్చిన పండితుడు మేము అడిగిన అన్ని ప్రశ్నలకు సమాధానం చెప్పాడు. ఇప్పుడు మీరు కూడా మీకు నచ్చిన ప్రశ్నలు అడగవచ్చు. ఒకవేళ ఆయన జవాబు చెప్పలేకపోతే.. మీకు తగిన కానుక ఇస్తాను’ అని అక్కడికి వచ్చిన సామాన్య ప్రజలకు చెప్పాడు. దాంతో అందరూ ఏమడగాలో అర్థంకాక అయోమయంలో పడ్డారు. అప్పుడు.. అక్కడే ఉన్న మల్లన్న ‘అయ్యా! మీరు అనుమతిస్తే నేను ఒక ప్రశ్న వేస్తాను?’ అన్నాడు. దాంతో రాజు.. ‘తప్పకుండా అడుగు!’ అని చెప్పాడు. వెంటనే మల్లన్న అక్కడున్న అందరికీ నమస్కరించి.. ‘అయ్యా! ఈ ప్రపంచంలో ఎవరూ తిరిగి సంపాదించలేనిది ఏంటి?’ అని అడిగాడు. ‘అదేం ప్రశ్న?’ అన్నట్టుగా చూశారంతా. ‘నువ్వు అడిగిన ప్రశ్న తప్పు. రాజు అనుకుంటే తిరిగి సంపాదించలేనిది ఏమైనా ఉంటుందా?’ అని వెటకారంగా నవ్వారు అందరూ. దానికి.. ‘మహారాజు కూడా సాధించలేనిది ఉంది’ అని బదులిచ్చాడు మల్లన్న. ‘ప్రభువులు తలచుకుంటే సాధించలేనిది ఏదీ లేదు. అంతెందుకు మీరందరూ వినలేదా? పరమ నిష్ఠతో ఘోర తపస్సు చేసి ఆ దేవుడిని సైతం మెప్పించి వరాలు పొందారు’ అన్నాడు ఓ వ్యక్తి. ‘నేను అడిగేది ఆ దేవుడు కూడా తిరిగి సంపాదించలేనిది’ అన్నాడు మల్లన్న. దాంతో అక్కడున్న అందరూ ఒక్కసారిగా కోపంతో రగిలిపోయారు. ‘మొదట రాజు చేయలేనిది అన్నాడు. ఆపై దేవుడు కూడా చేయలేనిది అంటున్నాడు. ఇతనికి ఎంత అహంకారం.. అసలు ఆ ప్రశ్నకు సరైన జవాబు అతనికైనా తెలుసా? నిజంగా అలాంటిది ఉందా?’ అని చెవులు కొరుక్కోసాగారు. ‘మల్లన్నా.. నిన్ను ప్రశ్న అడగమని అవకాశం ఇస్తే, అందరినీ అవమాన పరుస్తున్నావు. నీకు ఇంతకీ సమాధానం తెలుసా?’ అన్నాడు మంత్రి. ‘తెలుసండి!’ జవాబిచ్చాడు మల్లన్న. ‘అయితే దాన్ని నిరూపించగలవా?’ అడిగాడు మంత్రి. ‘తప్పకుండా.. నిరూపిస్తాను’ అన్నాడతను. మల్లన్న ఏం సమాధానం చెబుతాడా.. అని అందరూ ఆతృతగా ఎదురుచూడసాగారు.
అప్పుడతను.. ‘మహారాజా! ఎవరైనా అంటే.. ఈ సృష్టిని సృష్టించిన దైవం అయినా కూడా తిరిగి మనకు ప్రసాదించలేనిది ఒక్కటే.. అదే గడచిన కాలం. మనం ఎంతో మంది మహర్షుల తపస్సుల గురించి వినే ఉంటాము. వారికి ఆ దేవుడు ఇచ్చిన వరాలలో.. ఎవరికైనా గడచిన కాలాన్ని తిరిగి ఇవ్వగలిగారా? చెప్పండి. ఏ దైవం అయినా కాలాన్ని వెనక్కి తీసుకురాలేరు’ అన్నాడు. ఆ మాటలు విని మహారాజుతో సహా అందరూ ఆశ్చర్యపోయారు. మల్లన్న చెప్పింది నిజమేనని ఒప్పుకోక తప్పలేదు. ‘పోయిన కాలం వెనక్కి రాదు. అందుకే దాన్ని వృథా చేయకుండా మంచి పనులకు ఉపయోగించుకోవాలి. అప్పుడే గడిచిన కాలాన్ని తలచుకొని బాధపడకుండా ఉంటాము’ అని మా పెద్దలు చిన్నప్పటి నుంచి చెబుతుండేవారని గుర్తు చేసుకున్నాడు మల్లన్న. ఆ మాటలు విన్న మహారాజు.. ‘అతను చెప్పింది సత్యం. ఎవరైనా తిరిగి సంపాదించలేనిది గడచిన కాలం మాత్రమే. అది చాలా విలువైనది. మా అందరికీ జ్ఞానోదయం కలిగించావు’ అంటూ మల్లన్నకు మంచి బహుమతి అందజేశాడు. దాంతో పండితులతో సహా.. అక్కడున్న వారంతా, వారి చప్పట్లతో మల్లన్నను అభినందించారు.
WE LOVE READING SUMMER ACTIVITIES 2024- TODAY ENGLISH MORAL STORY : The Biggest Fool In The Kingdom!
King Krishnadevaraya loved horses and had the best collection of horse breeds in the Kingdom. Well, one day, a trader came to the King and told him that he had brought with him a horse of the best breed in Arabia.
He invited the King to inspect the horse. King Krishnadevaraya loved the horse; so the trader said that the King could buy this one and that he had two more like this one, back in Arabia that he would go back to get. The King loved the horse so much that he had to have the other two as well. He paid the trader 5000 gold coins in advance. The trader promised that he would return within two days with the other horses.
Two days turned into two weeks, and still, there was no sign of the trader and the two horses. One evening, to ease his mind, the King went on a stroll in his garden. There he spotted Tenali Raman writing down something on a piece of paper. Curious, the King asked Tenali what he was jotting down.
Tenali Raman was hesitant, but after further questioning, he showed the King the paper. On the paper was a list of names, the King’s being at the top of the list. Tenali said these were the names of the biggest fools in the Vijayanagara Kingdom!
As expected, the King was furious that his name was at the top and asked Tenali Raman for an explanation. Tenali referred to the horse story, saying the King was a fool to believe that the trader, a stranger, would return after receiving 5000 gold coins.
Countering his argument, the King then asked, what happens if/when the trader does come back? In true Tenali humour, he replied saying, in that case, the trader would be a bigger fool, and his name would replace the King’s on the list!
Moral – Don’t believe strangers blindly.
