relational adjective
A relational adjective is a type of adjective that shows a relationship to a specific noun, often indicating origin, possession, connection, or association. These adjectives are often derived from nouns and typically end in suffixes such as -al, -an, -ary, -ful, -ic, -ish, -ive, -less, -ous, and -y. They generally cannot be used predicatively. For example, in the term "political news", "political" is a relational adjective, indicating the news is related to politics.
