   名词复数的不规则变化:单复同形、集体名词,以单数形式出现,但实为复数、以s结尾,仍为单数的名词等。


  1)child---childrenfoot---feettooth---teeth
  mouse---miceman---men woman---women注意:与 man 和 woman构成的合成词,其 复数形式也是 -men 和-women。
  如: an Englishman,two Englishmen 1. 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但除人民币元、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。
  如: peoplepolicecattle 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,t he 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,为不可数名词,是单数。
  b. news 是不可数名词。
  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。
  "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
  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
  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
