majority的詳細講解:
詞語用法
n. (名詞)
- majority的基本意思是“多數”“大多數”,尤指在選舉中在半數以上,即超過其余候選人得票總和的人或政黨,也可指票數差距,即多得的票數或超過的票數。
- majority也可泛指“大多數”。
- majority還可作“成年人”解,指達到可以投票的法定年齡,如英國、中國等為18歲。
- majority單獨用作主語時,謂語動詞多用單數形式,在強調“多數中的各個成員”時,謂語動詞常用復數形式。
- majority只用作單數,通常與of連用。the majority of后可用單數名詞,也可用復數名詞,謂語動詞的數與of后面的名詞相一致。
- 當把“多數”當作一個整體和少數人的整體相對比時,謂語動詞用單數形式。
