大连翻译公司分享一些被误用的无复数形式的名词

Researches

Research is work that involves studying something and trying to discover facts about it. 研究

?  Sixty-five percent of the 1987 budget went for nuclear weapons research and production.

 1987年预算的65%用在了核武器的研制上。

大连翻译公司小编之前也经常用错这个词。这个词有误导性，主要是因为它还能用于动词，单数第三人称是researches

V-T If you research something, you try to discover facts about it. 研究

He researches the properties of new materials.

他研究了新材料的性能。

大连翻译公司总结：research作名词时无researches形式！！！

Aids

1. Aid is money, equipment, or services that are provided for people, countries, or organizations who need them but cannot provide them for themselves. 援助

?  ...regular flights carrying humanitarian aid to Cambodia.

 …向柬埔寨运送人道主义援助的定期班机。

?  They have already pledged billions of dollars in aid.

 他们已经承诺了数十亿美元的援助。

2. N-UNCOUNT If you perform a task with the aid of something, you need or use that thing to perform that task. 帮助

?  He succeeded with the aid of a completely new method he discovered.

 借助于一个他所发现的全新方法，他取得了成功。

aid的意思是帮助，特别是指由政府向其他国家提供的帮助，在这种情况下，aid没有复数形式。AIDS是艾滋病。

大连翻译公司总结：aid作帮助讲时无复数形式。
