clothes,clothe,clothing虽由cloth(s)一词引申而来,但其词性和用法不尽相同,请看下面例析。 1、cloth是不可数名词,表示布、布料(衣料)和(棉、麻、丝、毛、合成纤维)织物等之意.前面不能用数词来修饰。 1)Please cut me enough of this cloth to make a shirt 请给我剪一下这块布,要足够做一件衬衫的。 2)The coat is made of thick cloth 外衣是厚布做的。注意:cloth前不可直接加不定冠词,可以说: 一块(片)布a piece(scrap)of cloth 一卷布 a roll of cloth 一种布 a sort of cloth 但如果在cloth的前面有形容词,那就可用不定冠词来修饰。
Although clothing, clothe, and clothing are derived from the word cloth(s), their parts of speech and usage are not the same. Please see the following example. 1. Cloth is an uncountable noun, meaning cloth, fabric (cloth), and (cotton, hemp, silk, wool, synthetic fiber) fabric, etc. It cannot be modified with numerals before it. 1)Please cut me enough of this cloth to make a shirt Please give me a piece of cloth that is enough to make a shirt. 2) The coat is made of thick cloth The coat is made of thick cloth. Note: indefinite article can not be directly before the cloth, it can be said: a piece of cloth a piece(scrap) of cloth a roll of cloth a cloth of a sort of cloth but if there is an adjective in front of the cloth, then It can be modified with indefinite articles.
