Grammar 基数词
twenty 20
thirty 30
forty 40
fifty 50
sixty 60
seventy 70
eighty 80
ninety 90
twenty-one 21
twenty-two 22
………………
其它的十位数照此类推,如:
thirty-one 31
forty-two 42
seventy-five 75
ninety-six 96
20—90等十位数
百、千、万
百 hundred 100 one hundred
200 two hundred
以此类推······
千 thousand 1 000 one thousand
2 000 two thousand
英语里没有“万”这一单位,万也用thousand
表示。如:
10 000 ten thousand 一万
20 000 twenty thousand 两万
4、十万、百万
十万的说法是:100,000 a (one) hundred thousand
200,000 two hundred thousand
million 百万 a (one) million 1 000 000
two million 2 000 000
········以此类推 ······
8 000 000 eight million
在英语中,对于万以上的数字,我们改如何表达呢?这就要记住英语数字读法特点。以下面一个数字为例:
6,500,431,729
hundred
thousand
million
billion
注意每三个数为一个单位,按照百、
十、个向下读。
大数字的表达方法
英语分数的表示法:
用“基数词+序数词”表示,其中基数词表示分子,序数词表示分母。分子除用one外,也可用a;如果分子大于1,分母要用复数形式。
Two thirds of the students have passed the exam. 三分之二的学生考试及格了。
注意:1/2不能说a(one)second,而要说a(one)half。
1/4和3/4可以说a(one)fourth和three fourths,但常用a quarter和three quarters表示。
若它们在句子中作主语,则谓语动词是用单数还是复数取决于名词,即与分数所修饰的名词保持一致。
About two thirds of the students attend the meeting.
大约2/3的学生都参加了会议。
