一、定义

名词是表示人或事物名称的词。它既可以表示具体的东西,也可以是表示抽象的东西。 1、英语名词可分专有名词和普通名词两大类:

1、专有名词是个别的人、地、物、团体、机构等的专用名称。 专有名词中实词的第一个字母要大写。

如:Beijing, Tom, 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()

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)

2普通名词是许多人或事物的共有名称。如:pupil, family, man, foot.

普通名词又分为可数名词和不可数名词。

可数名词是可以用简单的数词进行计数的名词,如: box, child, orange

不可数名词是不可以用简单的数词进行计数的名词。如:water, news, oil, population,

information .

2、英语可数名词的单复数:英语可数名词有单数和复数两种形式。 1、名词由单数变复数的基本方法如下:

①在单数名词词尾加s。如:map maps,boy boys,horse horses, table tables. s,o,x ,sh,ch结尾的词加es.如:classclasses, boxboxes, heroheroes, dishdishes, benchbenches.

[]少数以o结尾的词,变复数时只加s。如:photophotos, pianopianos.

③以辅音字母加y结尾的名词,yi,再加es。如:familyfamilies, citycities, partyparties.

④以ffe结尾的名词,ffev,再加es。如:shelfshelves, wolfwolves, lifelives, knifeknives.

2、不规则变化:manmen, womanwomen, sheepsheep,toothteeth, fishfish, child

children, oxoxen, goosegeese

不可数名词一般没有复数形式,说明其数量时,要用有关计量名词。如:a bag of ricetwo bags of rice, a piece of paperthree pieces of paper, a bottle of milkfive bottles of milk. 3、名词所有格:

1 名词所有格表示所属关系,相当于物主代词,在句中作定语、宾语或主语。其构成法

如下:

(1)表示人或其它有生命的东西的名词常在词尾加’s。如:Childern’s Day(儿童节), my sister’s book(我姐姐的书)

(2)ses结尾的复数名词。只在词尾加。如:Teachers’ Day(教师节)

(3)有些表示时间、距离以及世界、国家、城镇等无生命的名词,也可在词尾加’s. 如: today’s newspaper(今天的报纸), ten minutes’ break(十分钟的课间休息), China’s population(中国的人口).

(4)无论表示有生命还是无生命的东西的名词,一般均可用介词of短语来表示所有关系。

如:

a fine daughter of the Party(党的好女儿). 2[注解]

‘s还可以表示某人的家或者某个店铺,如:my aunt’s(我阿姨家), the doctor’s(诊所) 两人共有某物时,可以采用 A and B’s 的形式,如:Lucy and Lily’s bedroom(露西和丽

丽合住的卧室)

of+名词所有格/名词性物主代词”,称为双重所有格,如:a friend of my father’s(

父亲的一位朋友), a friend of mine(我的一位朋友) 4、名词或代词作主语时和谓语之间的单复数的一致问题:




1谓语和谓语基本保持单复数的一致,即:主语是可数名词单数或不可数名词时,谓语动词

用单数形式:如:The computer was a great invention.(计算机是个了不起的发明)The water in the glass is very cold.(玻璃杯里的水很冷)

2、集体名词(family, class, team, group, row, police, school)做句子主语时,

果表示整体概念,则谓语用单数形式,如:Class Three is a very good class.(三班是好班)

果表示其中的所有成员时,则谓语用复数形式,如:Class Three have a map of China.(

班有张中国地图)

3Chinese, Japanese, fish, sheep, people等表示单个时谓语用单数,表示许多时,谓语用复

数。如:There is a sheep in the yard.(院子里有只绵羊) / There are some sheep in the yard.(院子里有一些绵羊)

4maths, news等虽然有s结尾,但不是复数,因此谓语仍用单数:The news is very exciting.

(这个消息令人兴奋)

5glasses, shoes, socks, trousers, gloves等名词往往用复数形式,故谓语用复数。如:

The trousers are very cheap and I want to take them.(裤子很便宜,我想买) 6a lot of 后跟名词复数时谓语用复数形式,跟不可数名词时谓语用单数形式。如:A lot of

students are playing baseball now.(现在有许多学生在打垒球) A lot of time was wasted on that work.(大量的时间花在了那个工作上)(被动句)

7and 连接两个名词做主语时,谓语原则上用复数,但是两个名词若构成一个整体事物时,

谓语则用单数。如:The teacher and his son are picking apples now.(老师和他的儿子在摘苹果) / Fish and chips is very famous food. (鱼和薯条是一种出名的食品) 8 there be 句型中be的单复数一般由靠近的名词决定。如:There is a table and four chairs

in the room.(房间里有一张桌子和四张椅子)

9、用both…and…连接两个事物做主语时,谓语一般用复数。如:Both you and I are

required to be here tomorrow.(你和我明天要求都来)

10、主语中含有with的短语时,谓语单复数由with之前的人物决定。如:A woman with a

7-year-old child was standing at the side of the road. (一名妇女带着一个七岁的孩子()就站在路边)

11either…or…或者 neither…nor…连接两个人物做句子主语时,谓语采用就近原则。如:

Either you or he is right.(要么是你对,要么是他对。/你和他有一个人是对的) / Neither you nor I am going there.(你和我都不打算去那里) 12表示一段时间或长度概念的复数名词做主语时,谓语一般用单数。如:Two months is not

a short time.(两个月不是个短时间)Two thousand kilometers is quite a long distance().(两千千米是相当长的一段距离) 13主语中含有half of… / (three quarters)of… / all (of) the ….等词语时,谓语的单复数由名

词确定,如:Over three quarters of the information on the Internet is in English.(因特网上四分之三以上的信息是用英语写的) / A third of the students were playing near the lake.(学生的三分之一(当时)正在湖边玩耍) / All of the water in these rivers has been polluted.(这些河流中的水已经被污染了)(被动句)

但是,population一词又有特殊情况: What’s the population of China?(中国人口是多

少?)(句子用单数) / Three quarters of the population in this city are Arabs(阿拉伯).(这个城市四分之三的人口是阿拉伯人)(句子用复数)
