The intentional semantic shift in English adjectives is the use of an adjective in an alien grammatical environment, e.g . transferred epithet , the use of non-gradable adjectives with the intensifiers too, very , the use of adjectives denoting human looks with the verb to feel and the use of adjectives in synesthetic metaphors . Adjectival intentional semantic shift in a number of cases may result from the interaction of the categorical meanings Process / State and Object / Actor .
