可数名词与不可数名词的相互转化
2007-11-09来源:
可数名词与不可数名词在一定条件下可以转化。很多表示蔬菜、动物等的名词,一般来说是可数的,但是表示餐桌上的食品时,就转换为不可数名词。
【例如】There are some chickens in the yard.(院子里有几只鸡。)Would you like chicken or fish?(你喜欢吃鸡,还是吃鱼?)
物质名词或抽象名词一般是不可数的,但用来表示若干类和数量之多时,可转化为可数名词,但往往意义有所变化,如:water(水)→waters(水域),sea(海)→seas(海域)
【再如】
Beer is a kind of nice drink in hot summer.
I had two beers and a big bowl of beef.
当抽象名词表示“某一种”或“某一方面”的抽象概念时,其前可加a/an.【例如】
What he did showed a certain honesty which made me admire him.
