知识要点
一、名词的数 在英语中,名词按其所表示的事物的性质可分为可数名词和不可数名词。可数名词有单数和复数两种形式。单数名词表示一个可数事物。复数名词表示两个或两个以上的可数事物。可数名词可分为单数和复数两种形式:表示一个人或事物的名词用单数形式,在使用时,前面一般加不定冠词a或an,表示两个或两个以上的人或事物的名词用复数形式,一般是在词干后附加词尾s 或es,如:bags ,boxes.名词单数变复数具体规则如下: 1).规则变化 ①一般在名词后加s.如boy→boys, pen→pens等。 ②以s, x, sh, ch结尾的,在后面加es.如class→classes,但stomach的复数为stomachs. ③"以辅音字母+y"结尾的,y变为i,然后再加es.如baby→babies. ④以f或fe结尾的名词把f或fe改为v, 再加es. 如knife, half, leaf, wolf等。 ⑤以o结尾的名词,除tomato, potato等少数在后面加es外,一般是在后面直接加s.如kilo→kilos, photo→photos, zoo→zoos, radio→radios, piano→pianos, video→videos. 2).不规则变化 ① man→men, woman→women, foot→feet, tooth→teeth,,child-children,mouse→mice ② 单复数形式相同如:sheep→sheep, deer→deer, Japanese→Japanese, Chinese→Chinese等。 ③ 有些名词形式上是单数,实为复数意义,通常被称为复数名词,如:people, police等。 ④ 由-man和-woman构成的合成词如:policeman→policemen, Englishman→Englishmen,Englishwoman-Englishwomen但German不是合成词,故复数形式为Germans.另外被man 或woman 修饰的名词变复数时,两个名词都要变。例:a man doctor →two men doctors a woman teacher→some women teachers 但: apple tree→apple trees ⑤ 有些名词只有复数形式,如:clothes, trousers, glasses, chopsticks等。 ⑥数词+名词作定语时, 常采用数词+单数名词形式,如a two-week holiday, an 8-year old girl.另一种常见的形式有five minutes' walk, two days' leave等。 3)不可数名词没有单复数形式,要表示不可数名词的数量,可用以下两种方法。 ①用much, a little, a lot of /lots of some, any等修饰不可数名词。如: The rich man has a lot of money. ②可用表单位的词修饰不可数名词, 如:a piece of paper, two pieces of paper, a bottle of orange, a glass of milk, three bags of rice。
二、名词的格 1)表示有生命的东西(人或动物)的名词所有格一般在名词后加's .如:my father's study以s或es结尾的复数名词的所有格只在名词后加' 如: the teachers' reading room 教师阅览室;不以s结尾的复数名词的所有格要加's.如:the women's shoes 女式鞋子。如果一样东西为两人共有,则只在后一个名词的后面加's。如果不是共有的,则两个名词之后都要加's .如:Jane and Helen's room 珍妮和海伦的房间(共有)Bill's and Tom's radios 比尔的收音机和汤姆的收音机(不共有) 2)表示无生命的东西,一般用 of+名词的结构。如:a map of China
