1、数词知识点概述:表示数目多少或顺序先后的词叫数词(umerals)。数词与不定代词很相似,其用法相当于名词与形容词。英汉两种文字在数词方面有较大区别,在英语数词运用过程中应注意表示数目多少的基数词、表示顺序先后的序数词、分数的构成和用法,以及hundred,thousand, million, dozen,和score的复数形式等。1.基数词1).基数词英语表达方式。百位数与十位数之间用and连接;十位与个位之间用“-”连接。(1). 112的基数词是:one 1 two2 three 3 four 4five 5 six 6 seven 7eight 8 nine 9 ten 10eleve
