clothes的区别

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

clothes
和
clothing
均可表示“衣服”,用作“衣服”的统称,但在用法上有差别：
1.clothes
是一个没有单数形式的复数名词,其前不可加不定冠词,也不可加数词,但可用
some,these,those,many,few
等词修饰.如：
正：those
clothes
/
few
clothes
/
many
clothes
误：a
clothes
/
two
clothes
/
three
clothes
2.clothing
是不可数名词.如：
They
wear
very
little
clothing.他们衣服穿得很少.
3.比较而言：clothes
的含义比较具体,而
clothing
的含义则比较抽象.从语体上看,clothing
比
clothes
更正式.比较：
I
changed
my
clothes.我换了衣服.
He
is
washing
his
clothes.他在洗衣服.
Our
clothing
protects
us
against
the
cold.我们的衣服可以御寒.
We
are
well
provided
with
food
and
clothing.我们吃得好,穿得好.
若不考虑其细微区别,两者常可换用(注：一个是复数,一个不可数).如：
He
spent
a
lot
of
money
on
clothes
[clothing].他花了许多钱买衣服.
