More and Many

This week we answer a question from Pakistan.

本周,我们将回答来自巴基斯坦的一个问题。 

Shahid writes, Please explain about “more” and “many.”

沙希德写道,请解释一下“more”和“many”。 

What is the difference between them? – Shahid, Pakistan

它们之间有什么区别?”——沙希德,巴基斯坦 

Dear Shahid,

亲爱的,沙希德 

The words “more” and “many” do appear to be similar in meaning.

单词“more”和“many”在意思上似乎是相似的。 

Both are adjectives, and one is sometimes an adverb.

两者都是形容词,有时其中一个还可用作副词。 

Here is the difference:

区别在于: 

“Many” is used when something can be counted.

“Many”用于某物是可数的情况。 

Here’s a example of how to use “many” in a question.

下面是一个在问句中如何使用“many”的例子。 

“How many people marched in the parade?”

“有多少人参加了游行?” 

Many is an adjective describing people.

“Many”可以用作形容人的形容词。 

What kind of people?

多少人? 

Many people.

一些人(用Many来形容)。 

It might be a very large number, but you can still count the number of marchers in a parade.

可能是一个非常大的数字,但你仍然可以计算游行队伍中的游行者人数。 

Now, we turn to the word “more.”

现在,我们来看看“more”这个词。 

You can use it with things you cannot count.

你可以把它用在你无法计数的东西上。 

Let’s hear how to use it in a question:

让我们来听一下如何在问句中使用它: 

“Would you like more tea?”

你还要一些茶吗? 

What kind of tea?

多少茶? 

The answer is more tea, but you are not specific about how much more.

答案是一些茶(用More来形容),但是你不清楚“一些”具体是多少。 

As an adverb, “more” is often used to compare two things, sometimes with the word “than” following it:

作为副词,“more”经常用于两件事物的比较,有时与“than”连用: 

“There were more people on the train than usual.”

“火车上的人比平时多。” 

Here is another sentence where “more” is used as a comparison adverb:

下面是另一个句子,more用作比较副词: 

“I like to eat more food than my brother.”

我比我哥哥喜欢吃更多的食物 

You are comparing two people: you and your brother.

这里是两个人进行比较:你和你的哥哥。 

One person eats more food than the other.

一个人吃的食物比另一个人多。 

“Keep coming to VOA Learning English, and you will learn more about American English!”

“继续收听美国之音慢速英语,你会学到更多关于美国英语的知识!” 

And that’s Ask a Teacher!
