Abstract
In this paper I will argue that Berliner is an adjective in constructions like Berliner Luft. But adjectives like Berliner have certain defects. While they are restricted to the attributive position they are not inflectable, even though the attributive position normally requires inflected adjectives. This surprising behavior will be explained by the form ofthe1suffix (-er) and by the fact that there is almost always a noun homonymous with the adjective.
