Re: [請益] 單複數問題
「English also tends to use the plural with decimal fractions, even if less
than one, as in 0.3 metres, 0.9 children.」
(維基百科,關鍵字:plural、linguistics)
由此可知,在十進制分數(俗稱小數)中是要用複數(plural、眾數[非統計學中特殊名詞])
的,即使小於1,也要使用複數。
「Common fractions less than one tend to be used with singular expressions:
half (of) a loaf, two-thirds of a mile.」
(維基百科,關鍵字:plural、linguistics)
另外,由這句話可知道,在common fractions中,是要用單數的。
「A common fraction (also known as a vulgar fraction or simple fraction) is a
rational number written as a/b or , where the integers a and b are called the
numerator and the denominator, respectively.[2] The numerator represents a
number of equal parts and the denominator, which cannot be zero, indicates
how many of those parts make up a unit or a whole. In the examples 2/5 and
7/3, the slanting line is called a solidus or forward slash. In the examples
and , the horizontal line is called a vinculum or, informally, a "fraction
bar."」
(維基百科,關鍵字:fraction、mathematics)
上述為common fraction的定義。
「Negative numbers are usually treated the same as the corresponding positive
ones: minus one degree, minus two degrees. Again, rules on such matters
differ between languages.」
再者,上述為「負數」時,「複數」的使用方法。由此句話可知道,只要對應到其「正數
」的部分,並且由「正數」的部分做為「單數」或「複數」決定之參考。
