谈名词单复数的一般规律

第一篇：谈名词单复数的一般规律

谈名词单复数的一般规律

1．名词复数的规则变化情况? 构成方法 读音 例词

一般情况 加-s 清辅音后读／s ／ map－maps 浊辅音和元音 加-s 后读／z／ bag －bags car －cars 以s，sh，ch，x等结尾 加-es 读／iz／ bus －buses watch-watches 以ce，se，ze等结尾 加-s 读／iz／ license －licenses 以辅音字母＋y结尾 变y为i再加-es 读／z ／ baby －babies 2．其它名词复数的规则变化

1）以y结尾的专有名词，或元音字母＋y结尾的名词变复数时，直接加-s变复数。例如： two Marys the Henrys monkey-monkeys holiday-holidays。2）以o结尾的名词，变复数时：

a．加-s，如：photo-photos piano-pianos radio-radios zoo-zoos； b．加-es，如：potato-potatoes tomato-tomatoes；

c．上述a和b两种方法均可，如： zero-zeros ／zeroes。3）以f或fe结尾的名词变复数时：

a．加-s，如：belief-beliefs roof-roofs safe-safes gulf-gulfs； b．去f，fe加-ves，如：

half-halves knife-knives leaf-leaves wolf-wolves wife-wives life-lives thief-thieves；

c．上述a和b两种方法均可，如： handkerchief：handkerchiefs ／handkerchieves。

3．名词复数的不规则变化

1)child-children foot-feet tooth-teeth mouse-mice man-men woman-women 注意：由一个词加man或woman构成的合成词，其复数形式也是-men和-women，如two Englishmen。但 German不是合成词，故复数形式为Germans；Bowman是姓，其复数是the Bowmans。

2）单复数同形，如deer，sheep，fish，Chinese，Japanese，li，jin，yuan，mu，等。但除人民币的元、角、分外，美元、英镑、法郎等都有复数形式。如：two dollars，ten pence（penny的复数形式）。

3）集体名词，以单数形式出现，但实为复数。例如： people，police，cattle等。不能说a people，a police，a cattle，但可以说a person，a policeman，a head of cattle。the British，the French，the Chinese，the Japanese，the Swiss等表示国民总称时，作复数用，如：The Chinese are industrious and brave．中国人民是勤劳勇敢的。

4）以s结尾，仍为单数的名词，如： a．maths，politics，physics等学科名词，一般是不可数名词，为单数。b．news为不可数名词。

c．the United States，the United Nations应视为单数。例如： The United Nations was organized in 1945．联合国是 1945年组建起来的。d．以复数形式出现的书名、剧名、报纸名、杂志名，也应视为单数。例如： “The Arabian Nights”is a very interesting story-book．《一千零一夜》是一本非常有趣的故事书。5）表示由两部分构成的东西，如：glasses（眼镜），trousers，clothes等，若表达具体数目，要借助数量词pair（对，双）；suit（套）。例如：a pair of glasses；two pairs of trousers等。4．不可数名词量的表示 1）物质名词

a．当物质名词转化为个体名词时，可数。

? 比较：Cake is a kind of food．蛋糕是一种食物。（不可数）? These cakes are sweet．这些蛋糕很好吃。（可数）b．当物质名词表示该物质的种类时，可数。例如： ? This factory produces steel．（不可数）? We need various steels．（可数）c．当物质名词表示份数时，可数。例如：

? Our country is famous for tea．我国因茶叶而闻名。? Two teas，please．请来两杯茶。

2）抽象名词表示具体的事物时也可数。例如： ? four freedoms四大自由

? the four modernizations四个现代化

? 物质名词和抽象名词可以借助单位词表示一定的数量，如a glass of water一杯水／a piece of advice一则建议。5．定语名词的复数

? 名词作定语一般用单数，但也有以下例外。1）用复数作定语。例如： ? sports meeting?运动会

? students reading-room?学生阅览室 ? talks table?谈判桌

? the foreign languages department 外语系

2）man，woman，gentleman 等作定语时，其单复数依所修饰的名词的单复数而定。例如：

? men workers women teachers gentlemen officials 3）有些以s结尾的名词，作定语时，s保留。例如： ? goods train 货车 arms production 武器生产 ? customs papers 海关文件 clothes brush 衣刷

4）数词＋名词作定语时，这个名词一般保留单数形式。例如： ? two dozen eggs?两打鸡蛋 ? a ten-mile walk十英里路 ? two hundred trees两百棵树 ??a five-year plan一个五年计划 6．名词的单复数在意义上的不同

? 有些名词从单数形式变为复数形式时，可以有特别的意义。现把较为常见的这类名词列举如下：

1）advice 忠告??advices 通知 2）air 空气??? airs 摆架子 3）brain 脑??? brains 头脑 4）color 颜色?? colors 军旗 5）cloth 布??? clothes 衣服 6）corn 玉米???corns 鸡眼

7）custom?风俗习惯? customs 海关 8）damage 损害?? damages损害赔偿费 9）effect 效果?? effects 财物

10）experience 经验??experiences 经历 11）force 武力?? forces?军队 12）good 好处???goods 货物 13）green 绿色?? greens 青菜 14）iron 铁irons?脚镣手铐

15）letter 字母，信??letters 文学，学问 16）manner 态度，方式 manners 礼貌

17）quarter 一刻钟，四分之一? quarters?住处，营房 18）ruin 毁灭ruins 废墟 19）time?时间??? times 时代 20）work 工作works 著作

单复数相同 sheep 绵羊

deer 鹿

fish 鱼

Chinese中国人

Japanese 日本人

第二篇：英语名词单复数变化规律

英语中名词可分为可数名词和不可数名词。可数名词在应用时有单数和复数形式。表示一个用单数，表示两个或两个以上用复数。复数名词的构成分为规则变化和不规则变化。名词复数的规则变化：

1.大多数名词在词尾加-s（在清辅音后读[s]，在浊辅音及元音后读[z]。）

cat—cats bag—bags day—days lake-lakes dog-dogs 2.以 s、x、ch、sh结尾的名词在词尾加-es, 读作[iz] class—classes match—matches dish-dishes church--churches 3.以辅音字母 y 结尾的名词把 y 变成 i, 加-es, 读作[iz] city—cities factory—factories party—parties

但专有名词例外，直接在 y后加-s，读作[z]Germany—Germanys.4.以辅音字母 o结尾的名词一般直接加-es , 读作[z] potato—potatoes tomato—tomatoes hero—heroes

某些外来词，加 –s，读作[z]。如photo—photos piano—pianos kilo—kilos studio—studioes

以元音字母 o 结尾的名词直接加-s, 但读作[z] zoo—zoos radio—radios

5.以 f 或fe结尾的名词, 将 f 或fe变为 v, 再加-es,读作[z] leaf—leaves wife—wives knife—knives

有的直接加-s, 读作[z] roof—roofs

有些词两种形式都可以 handkerchief--handkerchiefs—handkerchieves 6.以辅音字母加y结尾的名词，变y为i es baby—babies family—families 以元音字母加y结尾的名词直接加s boy—boys toy—toys 名词复数的不规则变化

1.child---children foot---feet tooth---teeth mouse---mice man---men woman---women

注意：与 man 和 woman构成的合成词，其复数形式也是-men 和-women。

如： an Englishman，two Englishmen.但German不是合成词，故复数形式为Germans；Bowman是姓，其复数是the Bowmans。2.单复同形如：

deer，sheep，fish，Chinese，Japanese li，jin，yuan，two li，three mu，four jin 但除人民币元、角、分外，美元、英镑、法郎等都有复数形式。如: a dollar, two dollars;a meter, two meters

3.集体名词，以单数形式出现，但实为复数。

如： people police cattle 等本身就是复数，不能说 a people，a police，a cattle，但可以说 a person，a policeman，a head of cattle,the English，the British，the French，the Chinese，the Japanese，the Swiss 等名词，表示国民总称时，作复数用。如： The Chinese are industries and brave.中国人民是勤劳勇敢的。4.以s结尾，仍为单数的名词，如：

a.maths，politics，physics等学科名词，为不可数名词，是单数。b.news 是不可数名词。

c.the United States，the United Nations 应视为单数。

d.以复数形式出现的书名，剧名，报纸，杂志名，也可视为单数。“The Arabian Nights” is a very interesting story-book.<<一千零一夜>>是一本非常有趣的故事书。

5.表示由两部分构成的东西，如：glasses(眼镜)trousers, clothes 若表达具体数目，要借助数量词 pair(对，双);suit(套);a pair of glasses;two pairs of trousers

6.另外还有一些名词，其复数形式有时可表示特别意思，如：goods货物，waters水域，fishes（各种）鱼

第三篇：名词单复数

一、名词

名词可以分为可数名词与不可数名词，其中可数名词具有单、复数的形式；而不可数名词没有复数形式。

1.从单数 复数，变形规则如下：

1．一般情况下，直接加-s，如：book-books, bag-bags, cat-cats, bed-beds 2．以s.x.sh.ch结尾，加-es，如：bus-buses, box-boxes, watch-watches 3．以“辅音字母+y”结尾，变y为i, 再加-es，如：family-families（家庭）, strawberry-strawberries（草莓）

4．以“f或fe”结尾，变f或fe为v, 再加-es，如：knife-knives 5．不规则名词复数： man-men, woman-women, policeman（男警察）-policemen, policewoman（女警察）-policewomen, mouse-mice child（孩子）-children foot-feet,.tooth-teeth fish-fish, sheep（羊）-sheep people-people, Chinese-Chinese, Japanese-Japanese,当people后加上s时即peoples表示“民族”例如：There are 56 peoples in China.中国有56个民族。2.以下词为常为不可数名词，他们的复数形式就是他们本身。

Water(水)milk(牛奶)tea(茶)rice(米饭)orange（橙汁）juice（果汁）bread（面包）练习题 写出下列各词的复数

I _________this ___________that___________ watch _______child _______photo ________diary _________ day________ foot________ book_______ dress ______________ tooth_______ sheep ______box_______ strawberry _____________ thief _______yo-yo ______ peach______ sandwich _______________ man______ woman_______ paper_______ juice____________________ water________ milk________ rice__________ tea_______________-注意be 动词遇到名词时的运用: 单数名词用is, 复数名词全用are.名词单复数讲解及练习名词单复数

（1）名词可以分为可数名词和不可数名词，不可数名词没有单复数，一律看作单数。（2）可数名词的单数前什么时候用a，什么时候用an？ 答：以元音音标（或音素）开头的用an。以辅音音标（或音素）开头的用a。注意：我们看的是音标（或音素），而不是元音字母。

一、选择a或an或不填（用/表示）pen bag apple big apple banana orange oranges orange pen（3）可数名词的变化规则：

① 般在词尾加s，如：books，bags，fruits。加s之后的读音②以s、x、ch、sh结尾的名词加es，③以辅音字母加y结尾的名词，变y为i再加es，读[iz]；以元音字母加y结尾的名词直接在词尾加s。

② 如：baby —— babies ③ ④以f、fe结尾的名词变f、fe为ves,如：wolf [wulf] 狼——wolves wife（妻子）— life（生命）— knife —

④ ⑤以o结尾的名词加es 的有：如：zoo——zoos photo——photos（4）名词复数的不规则变化：

⑤ man—men男人 woman[wumEn]—women [5wimin] 女人tooth [tu:W]—teeth [ti:W] 牙齿 foot [fut]—feet [fi:t] 脚，英尺 goose [gu:s]—geese [gi:z] 鹅 mouse [maus] —mice [mais] 老鼠 ⑥ ②child [tFaild]—children [5tFildrEn] 孩子 ③单复同形的名词有：

⑦ chinese [5tFaini:z] 中国人Japanese [7dVApE5ni:z]日本人 sheep [Fi:p] 绵羊 deer [diE] 鹿 fish [fiF] 鱼

⑧ 注意：fish①当一条鱼讲时，单复数同形，如three fish.②当各种各样的鱼讲时，即强调鱼的种类时，要加es.⑨ 如：all kinds[kaindz] of fishes.各种各样的鱼 ③当鱼肉讲时，不可数。

一、名词复数规则

⑩ 1．一般情况下，直接加-s，如：book-books, bag-bags, cat-cats, bed-beds ⑪ 2．以s.x.sh.ch结尾，加-es，如：bus-buses, box-boxes, brush-brushes,watch-watches 3．以“辅音字母+y”结尾，变y为i, 再加-es，如：family-families, strawberry-strawberries 4．以“f或fe”结尾，变f或fe为v, 再加-es，如：knife-knives 5．不规则名词复数：

water---waters（水体）wind---winds（一阵一阵的风）sand---sands（沙滩）tea---two teas（两份茶水）

5、可数名词通常不单独使用，需在前面加限定词（冠词、代词、数词、量词等）或用复数形式，省略冠词除外

There are five students in the classroom.（加数词）There are a lot of students in the classroom.（加量词）A horse is very useful.This horse is very useful.Horses are very useful.Horse is very useful.（╳）

二、可数名词的复数读音

1、大于一即算复数，如 one and a half hours 一个半小时

2、元音字母有五个：a、e、i、o、u

3、元音字母中，u不一定都发元音音标开头 uncle（发元音音标开头）usually（发辅音音标开头）university（同上）

4、y虽为辅音字母，放词尾常发元音 baby

sky

5、名词复数的读音：清音后读/s/，元音或浊音后读/z/，“嘶”（/s/、/z/、/ʃ/、/ʒ/、/t ʃ /、/dʒ/）音后读/iz/

books / bʊks/（读清音）brothers /'brʌðəz/（读浊音）

beds /bedz/（读浊音）oranges / 'ɒrɪndʒiz /（“嘶”音后，读/ iz /）

三、规则变化

1、一般直接加-s

book---books

table---tables

orange---oranges

2、辅音加y结尾的词，把y改成i再加-es baby---babies

city---cities lady---ladies

sky---skies

注：元音加y结尾的词，直接加-s boys

days

为什么要把y先改成i再加-es？ 原因：

1）y是半元音，即有时发辅音，有时发元音，若不变i会被误认为发辅音 year（发辅音）yellow（发辅音）baby（发元音）city（发元音）babys（被误以为y发辅音）citys（被误以为y发辅音）

2）如果不变成i会违反英语拼写规则

英语拼写规则：辅音字母写在一起不能超过三个，如school，spring，street skys（四个辅音字母写在一起）

3、以发“嘶”音的字母（s、x、sh、ch）结尾的词，加-es，读成/iz/ bus---buses box---boxes brush---brushes watch---watches 注：stomach因为ch不发“嘶”故直接加-s，即 stomachs 为什么要加-es？

1）为了让听者能辨别是单数还是复数

boxs（听不出是复数）boxes（一听就知道是复数）watchs（听不出是复数）watches（一听就知道是复数）2）为了拼写上不被误认为是双写s或违反拼写规则

boss---bosses（bosss违反拼写规则，同一个字母最多连写两个，如apple）bus若加-s，变成buss，会被误以为buss是一个单词 buses（一看就是bus的复数）

4、辅音字母加o结尾，多数加-es，少数（特别是外来词和缩略词）加-s 加-es： tomatoes potatoes heroes

加-s：pianos（外来词，来自意大利语 photos（photograph的缩写）注：元音加o结尾的，直接加-s zoos

radios

5、f或fe结尾的词，多把f或fe改成v再加-es（特别是发长音的），少数直接加-s（多为发短音），极个别有两种形式 加-es：knife---knives wife---wives wolf---wolves leaf---leaves 加-s：roofs屋顶 proofs证据

两种形式均可：handkerchiefs/ handkerchieves手帕 为什么要把f或fe变v再加-es？ 原因：方便发音，以免断气

knifes（读完没气了）knives（读完肚子还有气）

6、不规则变化

1）有man的单词，把man变men

man---men woman---women（注意读音）

policeman---policemen Englishman---Englishmen 注：German不属于词类，故直接加-s，即Germans 2）oo变ee（鹅用牙齿咬你脚）goose---geese鹅 tooth---teeth牙齿 foot---feet脚

3）公牛孩子和老鼠，复数最特殊 ox---oxen公牛

child---children 孩子 mouse---mice 老鼠 4）单复数同形

sheep绵羊 fish鱼 deer鹿

-ese结尾的表某国人的名词：Chinese，Japanese，Vietnamese（越南人）

3、有些名词常以复数形式出现（多为由两部分组成的名词）glasses眼镜（两块镜片）trousers裤子（两个裤筒）pajamas睡衣（连衣带裤）

（四）不可数名词

1、要表数量时需加量词，表“几个”含义，量词需变复数 water

a bottle of water two cups of water

bread a piece of bread

two pieces of bread paper

a piece of paper

two pieces of paper

2、仅仅表示一些，可some、much、a lot of修饰（不可用many）some water一些水 much water 一些水 a lot of water很多水

3、有时不可数名词也可以变复数，表“多份”、“很多” two beers两份啤酒 two coffees 两份咖啡 waters各种各样的水

名词单复数练习：把下列名词变成复数

coat _______ skirt _______ house _______ car ________ brush _______ box _________ toy _______ umbrella _________ ticket ________ class _________ classroom _______ teacher _________ son ___________ student _______ job _________ orange_________ class __________ monkey __________ piano _________ child ___________ country _________ family ___________ toy ____________ foot ___________

Japanese ___________ radio ____________photo ____________ tomato ____________ fox ___________ woman _____________knife ___________ sheep_____________ 二、一般现在时

注：英语的时间要通过谓语动词体现出来（形合句特点），中文则不用（意合句）中文：我昨天去学校。我今天去学校。我明天去学校。

英语：I went to school yesterday.I go to school today.I will go to school tomorrow.1、作用：表示一般性、经常性、习惯性动作或状态，偶尔表将来 I get up early every day.She is my English teacher.2、构成：

1）be动词：am、are、is am用于第一人单数：即I I am a student.= I’m student.I’m not a student.are用于第二人称及所有复数：即you，we，they You are late.= You’re late.We are students.= We’re students.They are not here.= They’re not here.is用于第三人称单数：即he，she，it He is a student.She is a worker.It is my book.2）其他动词：动词原形（按字典的写法）We go to the park every week.注：has用于第三人称单数，have第三人称单数以外的情况 He has a new bike.We have a new school.3）第三人称单数：需在动词后加s（同名词变复数的方法）He goes to the theatre every week.She does morning exercise every day.John plays the piano every night.3、常用时间状语（表习惯性）always总是、often经常、usually通常、every morning/day/week每天早上/每天/每周、sometimes有时、from time to time时不时、twice a week一周两次、seldom 很少、never从不

4、一般现在时的具体应用：习惯真理和瞬间，书评将来也可用 1）表习惯、经常性的事

He gets up at 7:00 every morning.2）表示真理性、客观性的事

Light goes faster than sound.光比声音传播得快。The moon moves round the earth.月亮绕着地球转。Knowledge is power.知识就是力量。3）表瞬间发生的事

Tom passes the ball to John.John shoots.What a goal！汤姆传球给约翰。约翰射门。球进了！4）用写书评、读后感

I finished reading a book yesterday.It is about a little princess.Her mother dies when she is young.5）表示安排好的将来一定发生的事（详见一般将来时专题）Now it’s 8:00.The train leaves at 10:00.The final exam is in next week.一般现在是练习：用所给词的正确形式填空 1.We often___________(play)on the playground.2.He _________(get)up at six o’clock.3.__________you _________(brush)your teeth every morning.4.What_________(do)he usually _____(do)after school?

5.Danny ________(study)English, Chinese, Maths, Science and Art at school.6.Mike sometimes __________(go)to the park with his sister.7.At eight at night, she ________(watch)TV with his parents.8.________ Mike________(read)English every day?

9.How many lessons _________ your classmate__________(have)on Monday? 10.What time ________his mother_________(do)the housework?
