在说不准确的数时候加s。基数词在表示确切的数字时,不能使用百、千、百万、十亿的复数形式,而是直接用在数量的后面,如5 thousand。但是,当基数词表示不确切数字,如成百、成千上万时,基数词则以复数形式出现,如thousands of,意思是成千上万的。
thousand什么时候加s
当thousand前面有数字的时候,用来说明几千的时候,thousand不带s。
例:There are two thousand students in our school.
我们学校有两千名学生。
当thousand后面有一个of时,说明是成千上万的时候,thousand要加s。
例:There are thousands of students in our school.
我们学校有成千上万的学生。
