1.专有名词

表示具体的人,事物,地点,团体或机构的专有名称(第一个字母要大写)。例:China(中国)、Asia(亚洲)Beijing(北京)、the People’s Republic of China(中华人民共和国)。

专有名词如果是含有普通名词的短语,则必须使用定冠词the。如:the Great Wall(长城)。

姓氏名如果采用复数形式,则表示该姓氏一家人(复数含义)。如:the Greens( 格林一家人)。

2.普通名词

表示某些人,某类事物,某种物质或抽象概念的名称。例如:teacher 老师、tea 茶、 reform 改革。

普通名词又可进一步分为五类:

1.个体名词(Individual Nouns):表示单个的人和事物。

(car 汽车 room 房间 fan 风扇photo 照片)

2.集体名词(Collective Nouns):表示一群人或一些事物的名称。

( people 人们 family 家庭 army 军队 government政府 group 集团 )

一、名词的可数与不可数

(一)在学习名词时,有一个问题特别重要--即名词的可数与不可数。其实,可数名词与不可数名词都是属于普通名词。可数名词是指能以数目来计算,可以分成个体的人或东西;因此它有复数形式,当它的复数形式在句子中作主语时,句子的谓语也应用复数形式。

例如: Little children are fond of stories .小孩子们喜欢听故事。 Movie stars are usually popular with young people. 影星们常受到年青人的欢迎。它的单数形式前常用不定冠词a / an , 当它的单数形式在句子中作主语时,句子的谓语也应用单数形式。例如: There is an orange on the table .桌上有只桔子。 A university is a higher educational institution .大学是高等教育机构。

不可数名词是指不能以数目来计算,不可以分成个体的概念、状态、品质、感情或表示物质材料的东西;它一般没有复数形式,只有单数形式,它的前面不能用不定冠词a / an ,若要表示它的个体意义时,必须与一个名词短语连用,相当于中文里的【一 +(量词)+ 名词】,其中的量词意义依与具体的名词搭配而定。例如: a piece of bread[ cake(蛋糕), paper(纸), thread(线), cloth(布),furniture(家具), coal(煤),

news(新闻), advice(意见), information(信息), work(工作), meat(肉) ] 一块面包[ 一块蛋糕、一张纸、一根线、…… ] an item of information 一则情报 a burst of applause 一阵掌声 a fit of anger 一顿脾气 a slip of paper 一张纸条 a length of cloth 一段布料 a cake of soap 一块肥皂 a tube of tooth-paste 一条牙膏 a bottle of ink 一瓶墨水它在句子中作主语时,句子的谓语也只用单数形式。例如: Water is a liquid .水是液体。 Wealth doesn't mean happiness .富有并不意味幸福。

(二)上面提到的可数名词和不可数名词并不是一成不变的。英文中的很多词都是一词多义,名词也不例外,同是一个词在一种情况下是可数名词,而在另一种场合却是不可数名词:可数名词: a tin 一只锌罐 a relation 亲属 an iron 一把熨斗 a democracy民主国家 a glass 一只玻璃杯 a beauty美人,美的东西 a wood 一片树林 a power大国不可数名词: tin 锡 relation 关系 Iron 铁 democracy民主 glass 玻璃 beauty 美 Wood 木头 power威力,电力另外,在很多情况下抽象名词可变成可数名词( A );而可数名词在一定情况下也可以抽象化,变成不可数名词( B ):Would you like some coffee ? (不可数)喝点咖啡好吗? Let me have a coffee . (可数)给我一杯咖啡吧。 Translation is an art . (不可数)翻译是一门艺术。 I've made an English translation of the book . (可数)我已将那本书译成了英文。 He got in difficulty again . (不可数)他又有困难了。 They met with many difficulties .(可数)他们遇到很多困难。我们讨论名词的落脚点在,当名词充当主语时,谓语动词在人称、数等方面必须与其保持一致--即"主谓一致性"的问题

可数名词和不可数名词(含练习、答案)

不可数名词和可数名词 不能按照个数计算的普通名词叫不可数名词;如:juice, milk, water, beef, chicken 等。 能按照个数计算的普通名词叫可数名词。可数名词有单复数两种形式。指一个人或一件事用单数形式a/an ;指两个人及多个人或事物时用复数形式。可数名词由单数形式变为复数形式的规则如下: ①一般情况,加-s。 女口:books, dogs, days, trees 等。 ②单词以s, x, ch, sh 结尾的,加-es。 女口:classes, watches ,boxes, brushes 等。 ③单词以“辅音字母+y”结尾,将y变i,加-es。 女口:stories, cities, families, babies 等。 ④以o结尾有生命的名词加-es ;无生命的名词加-s。 女口:有生命:heroes, potatoes, tomatoes, man goes 等。 无生命:photos, pia nos, radios, zoos 等。 ⑤一些以f或fe结尾的单词,把f、fe变成ve加-s。 女口:life-lives, knife-knives 等。 ⑥不规则变化。 女口:man-men, woman-women, child-children, foot-feet, tooth-teeth 等。 ⑦单复数同形。 女口:deer, sheep, fish, Chinese, Japanese 等。 一、根据句意填空。 1.

名词_知识讲解_那些不可数名词前加形容词后可以变成可数名词

名词知识讲解那些不可数名词前加形容词后可以变成可数名词 同一名词作可数名词和不可数名词的意义差别 1)某些名词在不同的场合下分别用作可数名词或不可数名词,分别表不同的意义。 Paper was first made by the ancient Chinese. Each student has got a test paper. The hall is beautiful with all the doors made of glass. The waiter brought me a glass and poured milk into it. The cottage is on fire. The girl is learning how to make a fire. The house is being pulled down to make room for the new highway. The couple will move into a new room. Women usually pay more attention to dress than men do . She has longed for an evening dress 2)有些名词,尤其是物质名词,作不可数名词表事物的概念,而做可数名词时表事物的个体,其复数形式往往表事物的种类。如; Mike is a handsome boy with black hair. The young man has got quite a few grey hairs. The doctor advised eating some fruit after a meal. There are different kinds of fruits for you to choose from. He likes his coffee served with milk. Waiter, two coffees , please. 3) 有些不可数名词在作可数名词时常常以复数形式出现表示更为扩大的意义。例如: There is life where there is water. Fish are no longer found in the polluted waters. Our ship is sailing in the waters of the East China Sea. The children were playing with sand all afternoon. He walked along the sands, enjoying the setting sun. The road was covered with snow. We could see snows here and there at the top of the mountain. 4) 有些不可数名词,特别是表示自然现象的名词,常可以和不定冠词和形容词连用,表单数概念。如: a heavy rain a heavy snow a heavy smoke a good sweat a thick fog a good light a great fire a clear sky

some和any 既可以修饰可数名词又可以修饰不可数名词

some和any 既可以修饰可数名词又可以修饰不可数名词,some常用在肯定句中,而any则常用在否定和疑问句中。因此some和any 的用法主要是考虑用在肯定句、疑问句还是否定句中,与名词的可数与否无关。 some意为“一些”,可作形容词和代词。它常修饰可数名词复数。如:some books一些书,some boys一些男孩,也可修饰不可数名词,如:some water一些水,some tea一些茶叶,some常用在肯定句中。any意为“任何一些”,它也可修饰可数名词复数或不可数名词,常用于疑问句和否定句。如: --I have some tea here. 我这儿有些茶叶。 --I can’t see any tea. 我没看见茶叶。 --Do you have any friends at school? 你在学校有些朋友吗? --I have some English books, they are my best friends. 我有英语书,它们是我最好的朋友。

但在表示建议,反问,请求的疑问句中,或期望得到肯定回答时,多用some而不用any。如: Would you like some coffee? 你要不要来点咖啡? What about some fruit juice? 来点水果汁如何? 当any表示“任何”的意义,起强调作用时,它可以用在肯定句中; Any student can answer this question.任何学生都可以回答这个问题。 选题角度: 辨析some和any的不同用法:some 常用在肯定句中,而any 则常用在否定和疑问句中。在表示建议,反问,请求的疑问句中,或期望得到肯定回答时,多用some而不用any

修饰可数名词和不可数名词的词()

可数名词与不可数名词(适合小学用)

名词 英语中的名词指的是一种抽象的或者具体的事物,它有可数和不可数之分。所谓可数名词指的就是在数量上可以计数,可以数出数量的事物;所谓不可数名词是指不能以数目来计算,不可以分成个体的概念、状态、品质、感情或表示物质材料的东西。 可数名词在他之前可以加上冠词a/an。而不可数名词前面是不可以直接家冠词的。可数名词变为复数形式有如下变化规律:a.一般情况下,直接加-s,如:book-books, bag-bags, cat-cats, bed-beds ;读音:清辅音后读[s],浊辅音和 元音后读[z]。 b.以s. x. sh. ch结尾,加-es,如:bus-buses, box-boxes, brush-brushes, watch-watches ;读音:[iz]。 c.以“辅音字母+y”结尾,变y为i, 再加-es,如:family-families, strawberry-strawberries ;读音:[z]。 d.以“f或fe”结尾,变f或fe为v, 再加-es,如:knife-knives ,thief-thieves;读音:[z]。 e.以“o”结尾的词,分两种情况 1)有生命的+es 读音:[z] 如:mango-mangoes tomato-tomatoes hero-heroes 2) 无生命的+s 读音:[z] 如:photo-photos radio-radios f. 不规则名词复数:man-men, woman-women, policeman-policemen, policewoman-policewomen, snowman-snowmen, mouse-mice, child-children, foot-feet, tooth-teeth, fish-fish, people-people。 除此之外,还有一部分名词单复数同形,如: fish鱼,deer鹿,sheep绵羊,works(工厂),means手段,Swiss瑞士人,Chinese中国人,news 新闻,goods 商品有一些名词则只有复数形式: trousers裤子,pants裤子,shorts短裤glasses眼镜,compasses圆规,scales天平,pliers钳子,clips剪子 “某国人”的复数有三种类型: (1)Chinese, Japanese, Swiss 三国人单数复数同形,不需加s; (2)Englishman, Frenchman, Dutchman复数要把man 变为men; (3)其他各国人以–an, -ian收尾的均直接加s。如:Americans, Australians, Indians等。 可依照这个口诀记忆:中日不变,英法变,其他”s”加后面。 不可数名词一般没有复数形式,只有单数形式,它的前面不能用不定冠词a / an ,若要表示它的个体意义时,一般需要将其量化。 不可数名词如何量化:就是在不可数名词前面加上“数词+量词+of”,比如: a piece of bread(paper(纸), cloth(布), coal(煤), news(新闻), advice(意见), information(信息), , meat(肉) ) an item of information 一则情报 a slip of paper 一张纸条 a length of cloth 一段布料 a cake of soap 一块肥皂 a tube of tooth-paste 一条牙膏 a bottle of ink 一瓶墨水等。 当量词可数,且前面的数词大于一时,量词需要用复数形式, 如two bottles of water 两瓶水two pieces of paper 两张纸等; 同时,可数名词也有相应用法,如:a box of apples 一箱苹果six boxes of apples 六箱苹果等。

可数名词和不可数名词

初中英语——可数名词和不可数名词 一、可数名词与不可数名词的区别 普通名词所表示的人或事物是可以按个数计算的,这类名词叫可数名词。可数名词分为个体名词(表示某类人或事物中的个体,如worker, farmer, desk, factory等)和集体名词(表示作为一个整体来看的一群人或一些事物,如people,family 等)。如果普通名词所表示的事物是不能按个数来计算的,这类名词就叫不可数名词。不可数名词分为物质名词(表示无法分为个体的物质,如meat, rice, water, milk, orange 等)和抽象名词(表示动作、状态、情况、品质等抽象概念,如work, homework, time, health, friendship等)。 二、关于可数名词 可数名词有单数和复数两种形式。指一个人或一件事物时,用单数形式;指两个或多个人或事物时用复数形式。名词由单数形式变成复数形式的规则如下: 1. 一般的名词词尾直接加-s 。如: book → books room → rooms house → houses day → days 2. 以s,ss, ch,sh, x 结尾的名词,在词尾加-es 。如: bus → buses glass → glasses watch → watches dish → dishes box → boxes 3. 以"辅音字母+y"结尾的名词,要先将y改为i再加-es。如: city → cities body → bodies factory → factories等等。 4. 以f 或fe 结尾的名词,要将f或fe改为v再加-es。如: half → halves leaf → leaves knife → knives wife → wives 5. 特例[悄悄话:特例常常考,要记住。] ①child → children ②man → men woman → women policeman → policemen (规律:man → men)

可数名词与不可数名词 鉴于本单元出现了许多名词,所以我们初步讲一下他们的用法。名词一般分为 可数与不可数两种。 (1)可以用数目计算的是可数名词,有复数形式。如:book,apple(苹果),peach (桃),dumpling(饺子),egg(鸡蛋),orange(桔子),banana(香蕉),bowl(碗),plate(盘子),spoon(勺子),cup(杯子)等。不可以用数目计算的是不可数名词,没有复数形 式。如:water(水),milk(牛奶),perridge(稀饭),tea(茶),sugar(糖),salt(盐)等。 (2)哪些名词可数,哪些名词不可数,除了掌握上面的规律之外,还需要记住一些 特定的用法. 如:vegetables and fruit蔬菜和水果(蔬菜有复数,但水果却没有)。.(3)名词的复数形式一般是在单数名词后加一s构成,增读/一s//一z/或/-iz/。如我 们学过的:book→books,frfiend(朋友)→flfiends,girl→girls,pencil→pencils,apple →ap- pies,chair→chairs,tree(树)→trees,hand(手)→hands,knee(膝盖)→knees,finger(手指)→fingers,leg(腿)→legs,banana→bananas,dumpling→dumplings等。 [注意]我们在今后的学习中还会碰到以下两种名词: (1)没有单数,只有复数的名词。如:pants(裤子),shorts(短裤).(因为它们是连 在一起,不可分割的整体) (2)单、复数相同的名词。如:fish(鱼肉),chicken(鸡肉)。 (3)改变内部元音字母的名词。如:foot(脚)→feet,tooth(牙齿)→teeth。 以后我们还会学到更多的名词,更多的规则、不规则的变化,希望同学们养成边 学边总结的好习惯。 Ⅰ.定义 有些名词,如个体名词,可以用数目来计算,一分为二后不可用原名得为可数,如:苹果,梨等,称为可数名词【C】。 有些名词,无法用数目来计算,一分为二后仍可用原名得为不可数,如:水,空气,称为不可数名词,【U】。不可数名词分为物质名词和抽象名词。 Ⅱ. 可数名词与不可数名词的数 1.可数名词的数 ⑴可数名词有单复数之分,前面可以用数词,如:a (one) teacher, many students. 单数变为复数,其拼法分为规则和不规则两种。
