  people的復(fù)數(shù)形式

  peoples

  people的用法

  people的用法1:people的基本意思是“人,人們”,是集體名詞,沒(méi)有復(fù)數(shù)形式,在句中作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。泛指“人們”時(shí)其前不加定冠詞the。

  people的用法2:people與定冠詞the連用時(shí),其含義為“人民(群眾)”,指一個(gè)國(guó)家的或全世界的人民或者與統(tǒng)治階級(jí)相對(duì)的“人民”,沒(méi)有復(fù)數(shù)形式。

  people的用法3:people還可作“民族,種族”“被共同文化聯(lián)合在一起的集體”解,是可數(shù)名詞,“一個(gè)民族”是a/one people,多個(gè)民族時(shí)用其復(fù)數(shù)形式peoples。其前有a, one或every等詞修飾時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞多用單數(shù)形式。用it或itself指代, people在句中作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù)均可,但以用復(fù)數(shù)者居多。

  people的用法4:在口語(yǔ)中,people常指“家人,親屬”或“特別的場(chǎng)所、團(tuán)體和職業(yè)的人們”,在句中作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

  people的用法5:在英式英語(yǔ)中, people是person的復(fù)數(shù)形式。然而一些美國(guó)作家在這方面比較保守,在指一定數(shù)量,尤指較少數(shù)量的人時(shí),喜歡用persons。在英式英語(yǔ)中, persons只能用在關(guān)于法律的上下文中,或____徒所信仰的上帝的三位一體中。

  people的用法6:people可與數(shù)詞連用。例如:There are ten people present.有10個(gè)人出席。

  關(guān)于Person和people的困惑

  My full name is Yaciel Edelio Tellez Toledo. I comefrom Cuba.

  我的全名是Yaciel Edelio Tellez Toledo,我來(lái)自古巴。

  I wrote to you because I am in doubt with thecorrect use of 'person' and 'people'.

  我寫(xiě)信來(lái)是因?yàn)槲覍?duì)person和people的正確用法有懷疑。

  That was my question - because I know that 'person'and 'people' both are nouns and I would like to knowwhen I'm going to use 'person' or 'people'.

  我的問(wèn)題就是這個(gè)——因?yàn)槲抑纏erson和people兩個(gè)都是名詞,我想知道應(yīng)該什么時(shí)候用person什么時(shí)候用people。

  Hi Yaciel and thank you for your question, there are several points to make here.

  你好Yaciel。感謝來(lái)信詢問(wèn),這里要說(shuō)幾點(diǎn):

  The first one is to do with singular and plural nouns, I'm sure you know that most nouns inEnglish are made plural by putting an s on the end, so for example, girl – girls, boy – boys.

  第一點(diǎn)跟名詞的單復(fù)形式有關(guān)。你肯定知道在英語(yǔ)中,大多數(shù)名詞變復(fù)數(shù)只需在詞尾加上s,例如,girl –girls, boy – boys。

  But some nouns have irregular plurals, for example child – children.

  但是有些名詞屬于不規(guī)則名詞,如:child——children。

  And 'person' is one of those nouns that has an irregular plural.

  而person就是這類(lèi)詞非規(guī)則名詞中的一個(gè)。

  'People' is in fact the plural form of person.

  People實(shí)際上是person的復(fù)數(shù)形式。

  So for example we talk about one person and two people.

  例如,我們會(huì)說(shuō)一個(gè)人——one person和兩個(gè)人——two people。

  So in normal everyday speech you will hear people talking about 'many people', 'there were a lotof people at the concert', for example.

  那在平時(shí)的聊天中,你會(huì)聽(tīng)到人們這樣說(shuō),“many people”——許多人,“音樂(lè)會(huì)上有很多人”,例如。

  However it becomes slightly more complicated because sometimes you do see the word'persons'.

  但是,現(xiàn)在好像變得有點(diǎn)復(fù)雜了,因?yàn)槟阌袝r(shí)候會(huì)看見(jiàn),persons這個(gè)詞。

  For example if you're in a lift or elevator you might see the sign 'Four persons only'.

  例如,假如你在電梯(lift/elevator)里,你或許會(huì)看見(jiàn)這樣的標(biāo)志“Four persons only(只能載四個(gè)人)”

  And sometimes if you're listening to the news, to news reports you may hear news reportstalking about persons.

  有時(shí)候在聽(tīng)新聞的時(shí)候,你也許會(huì)聽(tīng)見(jiàn)新聞里用到這個(gè)詞“persons”.

  So for example 4 persons were injured in the accident, or police are looking for 5 persons.

  例如,“四個(gè)人(4 persons)在事故中受傷”或者“警察正在尋找5個(gè)失蹤的人”。

  Persons is normally a more formal use, a more formal plural form.

  persons是更正式的person的復(fù)數(shù)形式,通常情況下用于更正式的場(chǎng)合。

  It gets slightly more complicated when you find the word peoples.

  有時(shí)候大家會(huì)遇到peoples這個(gè)詞,情況又更復(fù)雜一點(diǎn)。

  People can be used to mean a nationality – all of the people of one country – so for example'the people of Cuba'.

  people可以指國(guó)民——一個(gè)國(guó)家的人民,例如,the people of Cuba——古巴人民。

  And when you're talking about a group of nationalities you may find the word 'peoples', forexample, 'the peoples of South America'.

  但是如果說(shuō)的是很多國(guó)家的國(guó)民,那就會(huì)變成the peoples of South America——南美洲的所有民族。

  So that's another slightly more complicated and not so common use of the word 'peoples'.

  這稍微有點(diǎn)復(fù)雜——是單詞peoples的一種不怎么常見(jiàn)的用法。

  Finally you may find the word 'person' attached to a number.

  最后你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)單詞person總是跟數(shù)字同時(shí)出現(xiàn)。

  For example 'a two-person car', 'a three-person room'.

  例如,只供兩人坐的車(chē),或是‘三人間’。

  This is where 'person' is being used to describe the noun.

  這是person用來(lái)修飾/說(shuō)明名詞的情況。

  '2 – person' is the adjective describing 'car' and as you know we don't put an 's' on anadjective.

  ‘2 – person'是個(gè)形容詞來(lái)修飾car。大家都知道,我們不會(huì)在形容詞前面加s。

  So far example we talk about a 'two-week holiday' not a 'two-weeks holiday' or a 'three-yearcourse' not 'a three-years course'.

  例如,我們會(huì)說(shuō),two-week holiday(為期兩周的假期)而不是‘two-weeks holiday',又或者‘three-yearcourse'(為期三年的課程) 而不是‘a three-years course'

  So hear we use 'two-person car'.

  所以大家聽(tīng)好了,我們用的是‘two-person car'(供兩人坐的車(chē))。

  So in summary, normally you find 'people' as the plural form of 'person' – one person, threepeople.

  那總結(jié)一下就是,通常情況下,people是person的復(fù)數(shù)形式:一個(gè)人是one person,三個(gè)人是threepeople。

  Sometimes you'll find people used to describe the nationality so you'll find 'peoples' todescribe different nationalities and sometimes you'll find the word 'persons' in more formalstyles of writing or in signs for example.

  有時(shí)候你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)people是國(guó)民的意思,而不同國(guó)家的國(guó)民放在一起就叫做peoples(各國(guó)國(guó)民,國(guó)民的復(fù)數(shù)),有時(shí)候你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)persons被用在更正式的文體(例如標(biāo)語(yǔ))。

  I hope that answers your question.

  希望以上是你要的答案。
