第五篇：英语名词变复数的规则及练习题

英语名词变复数的规则及练习题

1.名词

名词可以分为专有名词和普通名词，专有名词是某个（些）人，地方，机构等专有的名称，如Beijing，China等。普通名词是一类人或东西或是一个抽象概念的名词，如：book，sadness等。普通名词又可分为下面四类：

1）个体名词：表示某类人或东西中的个体，如：gun。

2）集体名词：表示若干个个体组成的集合体，如：family。

3）物质名词：表示无法分为个体的实物，如：air。

4）抽象名词：表示动作、状态、品质、感情等抽象概念，如：work。

个体名词和集体名词可以用数目来计算，称为可数名词，物质名词和抽象名词一般无法用数目计算，称为不可数名词。

1.1 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

1.2 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。

1.3 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：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。例如：

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，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。

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，杂志名，也可视为单数。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）;a pair of glasses;two pairs of trousers等。

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。

1.4 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为可数。

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例时也可数。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，其单复数以所修饰的名词的单复数而定。例如：

1）单数名词词尾加“'s”，复数名词词尾没有s，也要加“'s”，如the boy's bag 男孩的书包，men's room 男厕所。

2）若名词已有复数词尾-s，只加“ ' ”，如：the workers' struggle 工人的斗争。

3）凡不能加“'s”的名词，都可以用“名词+of +名词”的结构来表示所有关系，如：the title of the song 歌的名字。

4）在表示店铺或教堂的名字或某人的家时，名词所有格的后面常常不出现它所修饰的名词，如：the barber's 理发店。

5）如果两个名词并列，并且分别有's，则表示“分别有”；只有一个's，则表示'共有'。例如：

John and Mary's room（一间）

6）复合名词或短语，'s 加在最后一个词的词尾。例如：a month or two's absence
