觉醒林朝英洗髓:foot和feet的用法区别(当foot表英尺时)

来源:百度文库 编辑:查人人中国名人网 时间:2024/05/04 14:44:09
请问在什么情况下用foot而又在什么情况下用feet,注:我曾在牛津英汉双解字典中级版中看到过“five foot”。所以请各位大师告诉我这foot和feet到底怎么用?

当foot表英尺时,复数为feet。但也可以不变。特别是表示人的身高时,常用单数。如:
He is six feet(foot)tall。
The building is 40 feet(foot )high
见《英汉多功能词典)第588页等

In America 1 foot = 1呎 (Originally from England but now only used in America)

1 foot, 2 feet, 3 feet, 4 feet

Feet is the plural form

1 foot = 12 inches = 1 inch = 2.54 cm

2 feet = 24 inches

1 foot 足 Most people have 2 feet
