Compound adjectives
Compound adjectives are adjectives that are made up of two or more words usually with hyphens (-) between them.

- To concentrate on your homework, you should usually study in brightly-lit places.
- Mr Brown still has that old-fashioned car. I don't think he will ever get rid of it.
N.B.: A compound adjective with a number does not take the 's' of the plural.
