英语基础语法-01单数和复数名词

单数和复数名词(Singular)

名词表示人,地点,物或者想法。名词应该是学习语言需要接触的第一个话题。

复数名词(Plural Nouns)

大多数的复数名词形式是在尾部追加“s”

比如:bottle-bottles, cup-cups, pencil-pencils

以ch, x, s结尾或者发音是s的名词在尾部追加“es”

比如:box – boxes,watch – watches,moss – mosses,bus – buses

以f或者fe结尾的,把f或者fe变成v然后添加“es”

比如:wolf – wolves,wife – wives,leaf – leaves,life – lives

一些名词有不同的复数形式

比如:child – children,woman – women,man – men,mouse – mice,goose – geese

以元音结尾的名词,例如y或者o,没有确定的复数形式规则可以遵循

比如:baby – babies,toy – toys,kidney – kidneys,potato – potatoes,memo – memos,stereo – stereos

少数名词单数和复数形式一致

比如:sheep – sheep,deer – deer,series – series,species – species
