英文“警察”这个词到底怎么用?

from 意趣英语 · host 意趣英语

开始今天学习之前,请大家先来翻译以下这句话:警察在外面要见你。我觉得你没事,但是他们想问你几个问题。答案:You got the police outside waiting to see you. I don't think you're in trouble, but they want to ask you a few questions. 第一句很多同学都答对了,但是第二句就出问题了。首先是police这么简单的词,很多同学单复数却用错。“警察”这个词到底怎么用?1. Police 警察Police是个集合名词,本身就是复数,所以不能说 a policethe police是指警察机关,例如:Call the police. 打电话叫警察。The police are here. 警察来了。2. A policeman/police officer 一个警察A policeman/police officer 讲个体的警察要用这俩词注意:policeman的复数是policemenpolice officer的复数是police officersYou got some/a few policemen waiting to see you.3.a cop 一个警察(俚语)复数是cops正式场合不要用哟~我们背了很多单词,却常常忽略他们的用法和使用规则,到底哪里出了问题呢?总结:1. 想养成英语思维,要抛弃直译思维,从英语表达入手学习。2. 别嫌弃一个表达简单,看懂和会用完全不是一回事,学英文表达别只停留在“看懂”阶段。3. 词汇量 = 会使用的词汇量,光背过不算。4. 别忽略细节,大问题就是由细节问题组成的。新浪微博 @意趣英语公众微信 yiquenglish
