English Grammar Course | Singular and Plural Nouns #2

Hello guys!

大家好！

And welcome to this English course on nouns.

欢迎来到这个关于名词的英语课程。

In today’s video, we’re going to talk about singular and plural nouns.

在今天的视频中，我们将讨论单数和复数名词。

When you speak English, it is very important to know the difference between a singular

当您说英语时，了解单数

noun and a plural noun.

名词和复数名词之间的区别非常重要。

Ok?

好的？

So I will explain to you the different rules.

所以我将向您解释不同的规则。

And we will practice together.

我们将一起练习。

Let’s get started.

让我们开始吧。

Ok guys, the first you need to know, is that a singular noun means one.

好吧，伙计们，你们首先需要知道的是，单数名词的意思是“一”。

So, for example, I can say, ‘cat’.

例如，我可以说“猫”。

‘a cat’ ‘one cat’

“一只猫”“一只猫”

‘school’ ‘a school’

“学校”“一所学校”

‘one school’ ‘team’

“一所学校”“团队”

Now don’t forget, ‘team’ is a collective noun.

现在不要忘记，“团队”是一个集体名词。

It’s a group of people, but still, it is a singular noun.

这是一群人，但它仍然是一个单数名词。

We talk about ‘a team’, or ‘one team.

我们谈论“一个团队”或“一个团队”。

‘lady’ ‘monkey’

“女士”“猴子”

‘tomato’ ‘a tomato’

“西红柿”

‘one tomato’ Or ‘piano’.

“一个西红柿”“一个西红柿”或“钢琴”。

Now, if we talk about plural nouns, it means more than one.

现在，如果我们谈论复数名词，它意味着多个。

So for example, two, three, four, or many.

例如，两个、三个、四个或多个。

If we take our words again, ‘a cat’ becomes ‘cats’.

如果我们再说一遍，“一只猫”就变成了“猫”。

‘two cats’ ‘three cats’

“两只猫”“三只猫”

‘many cats’ ‘school’’ becomes ‘schools’.

“很多猫”“学校”变成“学校”。

‘team’ becomes ‘teams’.

“团队”变成“团队”。

Ok, so you just add an ‘s’.

好的，所以你只需添加一个 's' 即可。

Now ‘lady’ becomes ‘ladies.

现在“女士”变成了“女士们”。

‘monkey’ becomes ‘monkeys’.

“猴子”变成“猴子”。

But, two different rules.

但是，两个不同的规则。

As you can see, ‘lady’ is consonant + ‘y’.

如您所见，“lady”是辅音+“y”。

Now when you have consonant + ‘y’, in an English word, the plural will be ‘ies’.

现在，当你在英语单词中使用辅音 + 'y' 时，复数形式将是 'ies'。

‘lady’ ‘ladies’

'lady' 'ladies'

But when you have vowel + ‘y’ like ‘monkey’, it just becomes ‘monkeys’.

但是当你有元音 + 'y' 就像 'monkey' 时，它就变成了 'monkeys'。

You simply add an ‘s’.

您只需添加一个“s”即可。

Ok, ‘monkey’ becomes ‘monkeys’.

好吧，“猴子”变成了“猴子”。

‘tomato’ becomes ‘tomatoes’.

“番茄”变成“西红柿”。

‘piano’ ‘pianos’ Again, two different rules.

'piano' 'pianos' 又是两个不同的规则。

Now ‘tomato’ becomes ‘tomatoes’.

现在“番茄”变成了“西红柿”。

You add ‘es’.

您添加“es”。

And with most words ending in ‘o’, so consonant + ‘o’, you will add ‘es’.

大多数单词以“o”结尾，因此辅音+“o”，您将添加“es”。

But sometimes, you will only add ‘s’.

但有时，您只会添加“s”。

Like ‘piano’, ‘pianos’.

比如“钢琴”、“钢琴”。

There is no particular rule for this.

对此没有特别的规则。

You just need to know the words that only end with an ‘s’.

您只需要知道仅以“s”结尾的单词即可。

Ok, let’s move on to some pronunciation now.

好的，现在让我们继续学习发音。

So, when it comes to pronunciation, we have three different sounds.

所以，说到发音，我们有三种不同的声音。

The first sound is /s/.

第一个声音是/s/。

The second sound is /z/.

第二个声音是/z/。

And the third sounds is /Iz/.

第三个声音是/Iz/。

So let’s review some words together and be really careful, what sound do you hear?

那么让我们一起复习一些单词，并且要非常小心，你听到了什么声音？

‘cats’ ‘cats’

“猫”“猫”

What can you hear?

你能听到什么？

/s/ Can you repeat after me.

The second word is ‘schools’.

Ok guys, let’s now talk about nouns that end in ‘s’, ‘sh’, ‘x’, ‘ch’,

好的，伙计们，现在让我们来谈谈以“s”、“sh”、“x”、“ch”

or ‘z’.

或“z”结尾的名词。

Now to make the plural form of these nouns, you will add ‘es’.

现在要使这些名词成为复数形式，您将添加“es”。

For example, ‘roof’ becomes ‘roofs’.

例如，“屋顶”变成“屋顶”。

‘safe’ ‘safes’ So you simply add an ‘s’.

'safe' 'safes' 所以你只需添加一个's'。

Then we have ‘leaf’ that becomes ‘leaves’.

然后我们就有了“叶子”，变成了“叶子”。

Wait a minute.

What happened?

等一下。

发生了什么？

Well, ya, sometimes in English, a word ending in ‘f’ becomes a word ending in ‘ves’

嗯，是的，有时在英语中，以“f”结尾的单词

in plural.

在复数形式中会变成以“ves”结尾的单词。

That’s not a rule.

这不是规则。

But some words end in ‘ves’, you just have to learn them I’m afraid.

但有些单词以“ves”结尾，恐怕你只需要学习它们即可。

Another word, ‘wife’.
