BÀI ĐĂNG ĐƯỢC XEM NHIỀU

Bài 14: Danh từ đếm được số ít và số nhiều và quy tắc thêm chuyển từ danh từ đếm được số ít sang số nhiều.

      Như chúng ta đã biết danh từ thường phân thành nhiều loại nhưng về mặt ngữ pháp bạn chỉ cần biết danh từ gồm hai loại: danh từ đếm được và danh từ không đếm được. Về cơ bản mình sẽ nói qua một chút về danh từ đếm được và danh từ không đếm được vì bài này chủ yếu xoay quanh danh từ đếm được.

Thêm nữa Bananas  are  yellow và a banana  is  yellow bạn có nhận thấy động từ đi kèm có sự khác biệt không; danh từ số nhiều sẽ tương đương vói ư chỉ ngữ they và danh từ số ít sẽ tương đương vói it. Cơ bản là thế. Còn về danh không đếm được thì bạn phải cân, đo, đong như những...

Sáng hôm sau, họ lại dậy sớm tiếp tục đi cắt tranh. Lần này hổ đi cùng gà, còn thỏ đến lượt ở nhà nấu ăn. Hổ còn dặn thỏ cố lo làm sao có bữa ăn ngon như gà đã làm hôm qua. Thỏ đáp: "Việc đó không khó, bác cứ tin ở tôi!". Sau khi nấu cơm, thỏ cũng bắc một nồi nước sôi rồi cũng đứng lên thành bếp chìa đít vào nồi và rặn như kiểu gà đã dạy.
