名词复数变化
规则变化
1) 一般情况加s
例如：map-maps boy-boys girl-girls pen-pens bag-bags car-cars
（清辅音后读/s/，浊辅音和元音后读/z/，/s/、/z/、/dʒ/等音后发/iz/)
2) 以s, sh, ch, x结尾加es，读/iz/。
例如：bus-buses watch-watches box-boxes brush-brushes
3) 以辅音字母+y结尾，变y为i再加es，读/iz/。
例如：baby---babies city-cities country-countries
4) 以y结尾的专有名词或元音字母+y结尾的名词变复数时，直接加s，读/z/
monkey---monkeys　holiday---holidays Mary---Marys(专有名词)
5）以辅音字母+o结尾的，加es，读/iz/。
例如：potato- potatoes tomato-tomatoes hero-heroes Negro-Negroes
7) 有些以辅音+o结尾的名词，直接加s，读/z/.
例如：piano-pianos photo-photos alto-altos soprano-sopranos quarto-quartos(四开本)
8）有些以f或fe结尾的，把f或fe变ve加s，例如：leaf-leaves shelf-shelves
不规则变化
1） child---children　foot---feet　tooth---teeth
mouse---mice　man---men　woman---women
注意：由一个词加 man 或 woman构成的合成词，其复数形式也是 -men 和-women，如an Englishman，two Englishmen。但German不是合成词，故复数形式为Germans；Bowman是姓，其复数是the Bowmans。
2）单复同形，如deer，sheep，fish，Chinese，Japanese ，li，jin，yuan，two li，three mu，four jin等。但除人民币的元、角、分外，美元、英镑、法郎等都有复数形式。如：a dollar, two dollars; a meter, two meters。
3）集体名词，以单数形式出现，但实为复数。例如：
people　police　cattle 等本身就是复数，不能说 a people，a police，a cattle，但可以说a person，a policeman，a head of cattle.
4） 以s结尾，仍为单数的名词，如：
a. maths，politics，physics等学科名词，一般是不可数名词，为单数。
b. news 为不可数名词。
c. the United States，the United Nations 应视为单数。
The United Nations was organized in 1945. 联合国是1945年组建起来的。
d. 以复数形式出现的书名，剧名，报纸，杂志名，也可视为单数。例如：
"The Arabian Nights" is a very interesting story-book. 《一千零一夜》是一本非常有趣的故事书。
5） 表示由两部分构成的东西，如：glasses （眼镜）　trousers,　clothes等，若表达具体数目，要借助数量词 pair（对，双）;　suit（套）; a pair of glasses; two pairs of trousers等。
6） 另外还有一些名词，其复数形式有时可表示特别意思，如：goods货物，waters水域，fishes（各种）鱼。
7） 有些表示生物的名词，其复数形式与单数相同。如：fish-fish, sheep-sheep, deer-deer。这类名词还有aircraft, means等
不可数名词
1） 物质名词
a. 当物质名词转化为个体名词时为可数。
比较：Cake is a kind of food.　蛋糕是一种食物。 （不可数）
These cakes are sweet.　这些蛋糕很好吃。 （可数）
b. 当物质名词表示该物质的种类时，可数。例如：
This factory produces steel.　（不可数）
We need various steels.　（可数）
c. 当物质名词表示份数时，可数。例如：
Our country is famous for tea. 我国因茶叶而闻名。
Two teas, please. 请来两杯茶。
2） 抽象名词表示具体的事例时也可数。例如：
four freedoms四大自由the four modernizations四个现代化
物质名词和抽象名词可以借助单位词表一定的数量，如a glass of water a piece of advice
a pile of caol a flash of lightening a burst of laughter
