"a coffee" 文法上正確嗎 ?

發問:

coffee 不是uncountable noun,不可以加a or an 嗎 ? 點解我成日聽到人講: May I have a coffee ?

最佳解答:

你沒有聽錯, May I have a coffee? 是正確的, May I have a cup of coffee? 也是正確的. Coffee 其實是 countable noun, 也可以是 uncountable noun. When an uncountable noun is used to classify something, it can be treated as a countable noun. 意思上亦有少許不同. 其他例子包括 lights/light, experiences/experience, fish/fishes, a hair/hair, cake/cakes, wine/wines 記住名詞前或需要配上正確的 articles (a, an, the) E.g. 以下句子全都正確, I want a coffee. Give me two coffees. I love some coffee. I love coffee. I would like a cup of coffee. She has many experiences. She has experience in accounting. She has some experience in accounting. There are many French wines. I like wine.

其他解答:

coffee 係 uncountable noun 在noun 要加單位(unit) 正式應係 a cup of coffee 2007-12-29 22:16:55 補充： 基於口語,不需註重文化,再有人講May I have a coffee?|||||你系唔系聽錯啊 應該系may i have a cup of coffee才對!!!
