EDIT: Yeah, I am fully aware that pristine is an adjective (being a proofreader after all) but I was just wondering if there was a noun equivalent for it. I might as well rephrase my sentence in question to make pristine an adjective. I thought it'd be neat to find a noun equiv. though :)

  1. no nouns. do you want a noun to describe with the word pristine?


  2. "Pristine" is an adjective, but one noun that could be described as pristine is "virgin," which can be used as an adjective or noun.  It might help if you explain what type of noun you're looking for (person, place, thing?)

  3. a noun is a person place or thing. none of those can be A pristine, they can just BE pristine.

  4. Pristine is just an adjective.  I don't believe it has a noun equivalent.  It means pure, fresh, untouched, never been used,  like new merchandise.  Another adjective would be "virginal", if speaking of a young woman.  

  5. A related noun would be priss, a slang.

  6. Unless you design something such as an autombile and call it the (make)  Pristine...  

  7. no...its just adjective
