个体名词表示某类人或事物中的个体。集合名词表示同类的人或事物的集合体。 请问为什么 conductor(售票员)saleman(售货员)是个体名词呢?我觉得它们可以认为是同类的人的集合体,这样就可以认为是集合名词了。还有apartment(公寓)和supermarket(超市)也是个体名词,但是根据集合名词的概念它俩也可以看做是同类事物的集合体,为什么就不属于集合名词呢?请用自己的话回答一下,谢谢啦!! 另外请讲讲怎样简单容易的区分个体名词和集合名词~~谢谢~应为没有财富值了,所以给不了了,实在不好意思啊~~
个体名词和集体名词都可以用数目来计算,属于可数名词(Countable Nouns)。即能与“a/an, two…, few, many, several, these, those”等表示可数性限定词连用的名词就称为可数名词。
一、个体名词:(Individual Nouns):表示某类人或东西中的个体,如:gun, book, pen 等。
1.有单数形式:例如:
1).bag---bags 2).bench---benches 3).piano---pianos
4).country---countries 5).thief---thieves
2.与冠词连用或用复数本身表种类:例如:马是有用的动物。
1). A horse is a useful animal.
2). The horse is a useful animal.
3). horses useful animals.
二、集体名词(Collective Nouns):表示若干个个体组成的集合体。
1.当“family(家庭), class(班级), group(团体), team(队伍), army(军队), government(政府),
enemy(敌人), club(俱乐部), population(人口), audience(观众), public(民众), nation(政党),
crew(船员),committee(委员会)”等集体名词作主语表整体时,谓语是单数;表成员时,谓语是复数:
1). Our football team was founded last term. 我们的足球队是上学期成立的。
2). Our football team are having a rest under a tree now. 我们的足球队员正在树下休息。
3). The committee includes members from five countries. 委员会包括来自五个国家的成员。

观众衣着各不相同,有的穿套装,有的穿牛仔服。
9). The family, who live upstairs, are fond of music.
0). His family, which was a large one, was broken up in the war.
注:集体名词作先行词表成员时用“who”引导定语从句;表整体时用“which”引导定语从句
2.“mankind(人类), public(公众), crowd(群众), majority(多数), enemy(敌人)”集体名词作主语时,
谓语动词可用单数形式,也可用复数形式:
