例1:wood (n. 木头) + -en → wooden (adj.) 木制的
短语:wooden houses 木屋

短语:woolen clothing 毛织服装
拓展:gold (n. 黄金) + -en → golden 金色的;金质的
这种构词方式的单词数量很少,都是固定单词!
The suffix- en
用法 2:形容词 + -en → 动词
含义:使…… 变得……
公式:make + 原形容词
例:broad (adj. 宽阔的) + -en → broaden (v.) 拓宽;开阔
短语:broaden their minds 开阔眼界
拓展:
short (adj. 短的) + -en → shorten (v.) 缩短= make … short
wide (adj. 宽的) + -en → widen (v.) 拓宽= make … wide
dark (adj. 黑暗的) + -en → darken (v.) (使)变暗= make … dark
The suffix- en
名词后面加 - en,变成形容词,多指 “某种材料制成”;
形容词后加 - en,变动词,意思就是 “使变得……”。
修饰名词,放在名词前 → 用 wooden / woolen(形容词)
2.放在情态动词 (could)、need to、begin to 后面
