Several意思
"Several" 是一個英語形容詞,意思是「幾個」、「若干」。它通常用來修飾可數名詞,表示數量不多不少,大約幾個。例如:
- There are several apples in the basket. (籃子裡有幾個蘋果。)
- I have several friends who like to play basketball. (我有幾個喜歡打籃球的朋友。)
- They made several attempts to climb the mountain, but they failed each time. (他們嘗試了幾次爬山,但每次都失敗了。)
"Several" 可以用來指代具體或抽象的數量,取決於上下文。例如:
- She has several houses in different countries. (她在不同的國家有幾棟房子。)
- There are several reasons why this plan may not work. (這個計畫可能不成功的原因有幾個。)
需要注意的是,"several" 通常不用於指代一個非常小的數量,也不用於指代一個非常大的數量。如果數量非常小,可以使用 "a few" 或 "a couple of";如果數量非常大,可以使用 "many" 或 "a large number of"。
