1. 名词复数构成

可数名词一般有两种形式:单数和复数。构成名词复数的方法:规则变化和不规则变化。

(2)名词复数的不规则变化

某些外来词单复数变化也属于不规则变化。例如:

phenomenon - phenomena或phenomenons现象

The phenomena were very varied.

现象纷繁复杂

结构分析:The phenomena是主语(The是定冠词,作前置定语),were是be动词,过去一般时,very varied是表语。

medium - media或mediums传播媒介

These problems have been exaggerated by the media.

这些问题被新闻媒介夸大了。

结构分析:These problems是主语,have been exaggerated是谓语,现在完成时,by the media是主语补语。
