crowd可数吗
发布者:刘阳一2020-01-07
crowd是可数名词,其基本意思是许多人围在一起,即“人群”,可指“听众”“观众”等。
crowd用作名词,是集合名词。作主语时,谓语用单数(视为整体)或复数(考虑其个体成员)均可。如:
The crowd moves on, and no one tries to stop it. 人群向前移动,谁也没试图阻止。
The crowd were running in all directions. 人群往四面八方跑去。
强调人数多时,可用复数形式。如:
There were crowds of people waiting to get in. 有许许多多的人在等着进去。
