后置定语可以前置吗？

问题描述

There are many children in the park, lively and lovely. 请问，后置定语lively and lovely能放在children的前面吗？

老师答疑

刘老师：

There are many children in the park, lively and lovely.

请问，后置定语lively and lovely能放在children的前面吗？

【答】完全可以。可以说：There are many lively and lovely children in the park.

▲但表达的意思有稍微的差别。后置定语lively and lovely，而且之前有逗号，相当于一个非限制性定语从句：There are many children in the park, who are lively and lovely.

非限制性定语从句具有描述补充的作用。 

曾老师：

同意刘老师的分析：后置定语lively and lovely，而且之前有逗号，相当于一个非限制性定语从句：There are many children in the park, who are lively and lovely.

作一点小小的补充：两种表达在意义上的确存在细微的差别。《英语特殊表现法例解》中正好有此类问题的解释，在此贴上以供参考：

34.形容词后置表示强调。

一般说来，英语的形容词用作定语时，都放在它所修饰的名词前面。但是为了加强语气，两个以上的形容词可放在所修饰的名词之后，在读时，后置形容词一般读得较慢。例如：

There are many people in the room, young and old（= young people and old people）.这间房子里有许多人，年轻的和年老的。

The living body, animal or human, is a storehouse of electricity. 有机体，动物的或人的，是一个电的储蓄库。

We should be prepared to deal with the subversion and sabotage by all our enemies, domestic and foreign. 我们必须准备对付国内外一切敌人的颠覆和破坏。
