词语用法

常见错误

词源解说

n.(名词)

majority的基本意思是“多数”“大多数”,尤指在选举中在半数以上,即超过其余候选人得票总和的人或**,也可指票数差距,即多得的票数或超过的票数。

majority也可泛指“大多数”。

majority还可作“成年人”解,指达到可以投票的法定年龄,如英国、中国等为18岁。

majority单独用作主语时,谓语动词多用单数形式,在强调“多数中的各个成员”时,谓语动词常用复数形式。

majority只用作单数,通常与of连用。the majority of后可用单数名词,也可用复数名词,谓语动词的数与of后面的名词相一致。

当把“多数”当作一个整体和少数人的整体相对比时,谓语动词用单数形式。

n.(名词)

大部分土地已犁过了。

误 The majority of the land has been cultivated.

正 Most of the land has been cultivated.

析 majority只能用来修饰可数的数量,不可修饰不可数的数量。

☆ 16世纪50年代进入英语，直接源自后期拉丁语的majoritas，意为较大的。
