CHECK -- verb or noun
UNIQUE -- adjective
PRIMARY KEY -- noun
FOREIGN KEY -- noun
Any of them can be called an adjective if you put it before the word
"constraint". But that's kind of circular: if we made a new type of
constraint and called it XYZ, we could say XYZ CONSTRAINT, and call XYZ
an adjective.
I'm having trouble finding a clear pattern to follow.
