"二十多" 别用 more than twenty! more than是“多於(yú);比……多;超出”的意思 但是more than twenty可别理解成“二十多”! 這樣的表達是在強調 不止20(可能是40、50、甚至80…) 意思差老遠瞭 所以如果你說(shuō)一個(gè)女生二十多歲, 用瞭(le)more than twenty 是很可能會被打的。 正確的是 twentysomething
-something作爲(wèi)後(hòu)綴 -something is combined with numbers such as twenty and thirty to form adjectives which indicate an approximate amount, especially someone's age. For example, if you say that someone is thirty-something, you mean they are between thirty and forty years old. 數字(如twenty或者thirty)與-something結合在一起構(gòu)成形容詞(cí),表示的是大緻的數量,尤其是某人的年齡。例如,如果你說某人是thirty-something,你的意思是他們在三十到四十歲之間。
something表示不明確(què)的"幾(jǐ)" 類似的表達還有 thirtysomething percent 百分之三十幾吧 one hundred something people 一百來号人吧 例句: Many twentysomething entrepreneurs make their fortunes on the internet. 許多20多歲的企業家通過(guò)互聯網發(fā)家緻富。
teens A person's teens are the period in which they are aged between 13 and 19 十幾歲 例: Both my daughters are in their teens. 我的兩個女兒都十幾歲。 He's in his early/mid/lateteens. 他十三四/十五六/十八九歲(suì)。
此外 表示人的不確切歲數 也可以用幾(jǐ)十的複(fù)數形式表示 例句: He became a professor in his thirties. 他三十多歲時成爲瞭教授。
"好幾(jǐ)萬塊(kuài)錢"用英語怎麽說? 當基數詞(cí)表示不確(què)切數字,如成百、成千上萬,三三兩兩時,基數詞(cí)則以複數形式出現。 好幾(jǐ)百的 = hundreds of 好幾(jǐ)百塊(kuài) = hundreds of yuan 類似的 好幾(jǐ)萬(wàn)= tens of thousands of 好幾(jǐ)萬塊(kuài) = tens of thousands of yuan (ten 和 thousand 都要加 s ) 英文裏沒有"萬"這個(gè)單(dān)位 1萬(wàn) = 10千= ten thousand 例句: There are hundreds of people in the hall. 大廳裏有數以百計的人。 Tens of thousands of people packed into the gym. 幾萬人擠進瞭那座體育館。
