6)不规则名词:foot→feet, goose→geese, tooth→teeth, child→children, man→me n, woman→women, sheep→sheep, deer→deer, mouse→mice.

a. 加s,如: belief---beliefs roof---roofs
safe---safes gulf---gulfs;
b. 去f,fe 加ves,如:half---halves
knife---knives leaf---leaves wolf---wolves
wife---wives life---lives thief---thieves;
c. 均可,如: handkerchief:
handkerchiefs / handkerchieves

leaf-leaves(树叶)
scarf-scarves/scarfs(围巾)
handkerchief-handkerchieves/handkerchiefs(手帕)
knife-knives(刀子)
thief-thieves(小偷)
life-lives(生命)
self-selves(自己,myself-ourselves)
half-halves(一半)
wolf-wolves(狼)

f结尾的名词变复数,是变f为v再加-es,还是在f后直接加-s,可用两首打油诗来帮助记忆:

(A)

thief,wolf,knife, 贼狼刀,贼狼刀;

shelf,self,wife,loaf, 书架自己的妻子吃面包;

elf,sheaf,leaf, 小精灵(有)一捆树叶;

calf,life,half, 小牛(的)生命一半了。

(B)

“妻子”遇“狼”拿起“刀”, 吓得“强盗”满街跑;

碰到“架子”“毁”己“命”, “手帕”“树叶”“半”空飘。

注:

以上被引号引入的部分,皆为以“f”或“fe”结尾的名词,如变为复数一律先变“f”或“fe”为“v”加上“es”读[iz]。例如:

wife—wives,wolf—wolves,

knife—knives,thief—thieves,

shelf—shelves,self—selves,

life—lives,handkerchief—handkerchieves,

leaf—leaves,half—halves

其中handkerchief还可以有加“-s”形式:handkerchiefs。

另外,在中学课本中出现了四个以f结尾的单词是由加“-s”构成复数。这四个词是:belif,gulf,roof,serf(农奴)。记住:The serf had thebelief that there is a gulf in his roof
