13、r'aið'i:ðschedule'dju:l'skedu:ltomatot'm:tut'meituzzedzi:五、语法及表达1. 名词1-1. 美国英语将其他词类名词化的倾向比英国英语更为明显，特别是那些带介词的短语动词英式英语美式英语to cook outa cook-outto know howthe know-howto run downthe rundownto be shut ina shut-into stop overthe stopover1-2. 集合名词做主语时，英国英语的谓语动词可以是单数形式或者复数

14、形式，美国英语几乎是用单数形式英式：They are a family who has been very influential in the history of this country.美式或英式：The committee has decided to look into the matter further.1-3. 名词作定语时，美国英语多用单数形式，而英国英语则常用其复数形式英式：The worker decided to form a new trades union. 美式：The worker decided to form a new trade union.2. 动词

15、英语中的to have 是个词性不明确的动词。英国人既把它用作助动词又把它用作实义动词；美国人则一律将它当作实义动词来用。当动词have有致使之意时，美国用have;英国对上级用get,对下级用make.英语中的to have 是个词性不明确的动词。英式：I will get someone come.美式：I will have someone come.3. 形容词在美国英语中，形容词的比较级可以跟在all the 之后，表示强调。而英国英语则使用any 加形容词比较级这一形式来表示强调英式：Cant you do any better than that?美式：Is that all t

16、he better you can do?4. 时态表距现在不远的过去所发生或完成的事情，英国英语常用现在完成时，美国英语则倾向于使用一般过去时英式：I have studied your report already.美式：I studied your report already.英式：Now I know what it is! Ive forgotten its name.美式：Now I know what it is! I forgot its name.5. 日期表达英式用日月年，美式用月日年，且日期里的st，nd，rd不写出来英式：20th March, 1998 读作 the twentieth of March, nineteen ninety-eight美式：March 20, 1998 读作 March the twentieth, nineteen ninety-eight6. 数字读法6-1. 数字读法
