1 Therefore an adjective which has the effect of qualifying a property rather than an entity will not occur in ordinary predicative position ( nor in postnominal attributive position ) ; this prediction is confirmed by the unacceptability of sentences such as : ( 11 ) the sum of $300 she had to pay was total the lecturer who is to greet the Queen is mere a scoundrel complete must have taken my umbrella the cousins distant were put at a separate table If the adjectives in ( 12 ) are acceptable , reflexion shows at once that they are adjectives with more than one meaning , and the one which appears in predicative position is not that in which they are sense-qualifiers : ( 12 ) their village is distant and hard to reach burning his licence was wholly lawful the set complete is worth 1500 francs
2 A stronger indication still of the difference between sense-qualifiers and referent-qualifiers is that the former examples will remain odd even when the relevant noun is indicated by the context ( yet there will be no problem with the referent-qualifiers ) : ( 15 ) that stranger is a total one the kid was a mere one ( 16 ) his hut is a rudimentary one the tree felled was a deciduous one Again we may note that the other pair of sense-qualifying adjectives from example ( 1 ) do not sound odd when used with an indefinite head : ( 17 ) a lawful one the distant one but this is not surprising because they are adjectives with more than one meaning ; in one of these they are ordinary referent-qualifiers and hence they may quite freely occur in ( 17 ) with a presumption that the referent-qualifying meaning is the one desired .
