[规则感悟] 1.可数名词变复数
①以辅音字母加y结尾的名词,变y为i加-es;以元音字母加y结尾的名词,加-s。②以-th
结尾的名词加-s。③以-s,-x,-ch,-sh结尾的名词后加-es(如果词尾-ch发音为/k/,要加-s,
如stomach)。④以-o结尾加-es 的单词有:英雄(heroes)吃土豆(potatoes)番茄(tomatoes),其
他多直接加-s。⑤以-f或-fe结尾的词,多变f或fe为v,再加-es。但也有直接加-s的单词,
如:屋顶(roof)上的首领(chief)有信仰(belief)。⑥大部分可数名词直接加-s。
2.名词的所有格
⑦有生命名词,不以-s结尾的名词加-’s;以-s结尾的单数名词和复数名词都加-’。⑧无生
命名词,通常用of所有格表示。⑨双重所有格的构成形式为“名词+of+名词所有格”或
者“名词+of+名词性物主代词”。
1.不规则变化的名词复数
(1)通过内部元音变化构成复数。如:

2.复合名词的单复数变化

works(著作;工厂),manners(礼貌),instructions(指导;用法说明),times(时代)等。

friends with,shake hands with,make preparations for,make (both) ends meet,take pains to do
等。
3.名词所有格的特殊形式
(1)并列的名词变所有格时,若表示不同的所有关系,则分别在两个名词后加-’s;如果表示
共有关系,则只在最后一个名词后加-’s。如:
Kate and Mary’s room
凯特和玛丽共有的房间
