3.名词数的变化
(1)可数名词有单复数之分,前面可以用数词,如:a(one)banana,two bananas。不可数名词只有一种形式,如rice,前面不用数词。
(2)名词由单数变为复数形式,其拼法分为规则的和不规则的两种。
规则变化

e的词除外。 加-es bus -buses
box -boxes
branch -branches
brush-brushes
buzz -buzzes(嗡嗡声)
以“辅音字母+y”结
尾的名词 变y为i,再加-es story -stories
city -cities

[注意]①外来词如radio,piano,photo,zoo及个别的像stomach(虽以ch结尾,但发[k]音),其复数形式只在词尾加-s。

不规则变化

词尾
变化

Japanese,Chinese 汉语拼音通常是单复数同形,如jin,li,yuan等。
只有复数形式 trousers,glasses(眼镜), goods,thanks,clothes,compasses,ashes,remains,people(人们),police 这类词用来表示数量时,需加pair,suit等词,如a pair of shoes。
一些学科等名词 politics,physics,mathematics, maths,news 形式是复数,但一般作单数看待。
合成词分为三种 (1)sister-in-law→sisters-in
law grown-up→grown-ups
(2)woman doctor→women
doctors
man astronaut→men
astronauts
(3)boy friend→boy friends
girl student→girl students (1)有主体名词时,s加在主体名词的词尾上;无主体名词时,s加在复合词的词尾上。
(2)由man和woman构成的复合词,除了后面的名词要变为复数外,man和 woman也要变为复数。
(3)由boy和girl构成的复合词,只需把后面的名词变为复数。
[注意]①不可数名词一般没有复数形式。说明其数量时要用相应的计量名词。如a bottle of milk,a piece of wood,a bowl of rice,a sheet of paper等。
②在姓氏的复数前加定冠词the,指一家人时,应作复数名词。如the Smiths。
③有些名词在一些短语中,只能用复数形式。如make friends with,shake hands with等。
④名词的所有格:名词在句中表示所有关系、所属类别、动作执行者、动作承受者等意义,常需要用所有格形式。
a.表示有生命的东西的名词所有格
a)单数名词加's,如:the monkey's tail。
b)以s结尾的复数名词只加-',如:the students'books。
c)不以s结尾的复数名词要加-'s,如:men's clothing。
d)并列的名词各均属所有格时,须在各名词词尾逐一加-'s,但如果为两者共有时,则只须在后一个名词词尾加-'s。如:John's and Mary's mothers汤姆的母亲和玛丽的母亲(两人各自的母亲);John and Mary's mother汤姆和玛丽的母亲(两人共同的母亲)。
e)表示某人的家或商店、诊所时,名词所有格后的名词常省略。如the tailor's,the barber's,at my uncle's等。
f)of+'s所有格修饰前面的名词时,注意of前面的名词前一定要有一个a(an), two,any,some,several,no,few,another或this,these,those等之类的修饰语(这个修饰语一般不能是one和the)。如a friend of my father's。
b.表示无生命的东西的名词,通常都采用“of+n.”的结构来表示所有关系。如 the window of the room;但是today,yesterday,tomorrow作“本义”讲时(即“今天”;“昨天”;“明天”),其所有格通常用“-'s”。如yesterday's newspaper(昨天的报纸);作“转义”讲时(即“当代”;“过去”;“未来”),其所有格通常用of结构。如the world of tomorrow(未来的世界)。
