Asked on December 20, 2021 in Grammar.
What are the two definitions of elegant / elegance, “pleasingly ingenious and simple” (which I don’t understand)?
To say that the noun is noun means they are equivalent.
To say “the noun is adjective” is to describe the noun: a lot less specific and absolute.On the surface, a hill is considered a mountain; it is not. In terms of characteristics, the hill is not mountainous.
So, I suggest you use “simplicity is elegant” in your marketing. Is the sentence less factually incorrect?
Is the first definition of elegant or elegance in English? Those concept are far too vague and subjective for the sentence to be considered wrong. Nevertheless, the more vague describing with adjective than equating to noun might still be preferable here too for the same reason.
