Question

初中英语问题，求高人解答，谢谢~~

different kinds of furnitures还是different kinds of furniture？
如果是different kinds of furniture，那么为什么有different kinds of cultures??

Answer 1

furniture做家具解，不可数，a lot of new furniture.
但是，当指不同种类的家具时，可数，different kinds of furnitures.

追问

那是furniture is 还是furniture are

追答

A lot of new furniture is in the house.
Different kinds of furnitures are on sale in the shop.

Answer 2

furniture与culture不一样。
furniture，家具，是集体名词，本身就是复数，同people
culture，文化，有不同文化，有复数cultures

追问

那是furniture is 还是furniture are

追答

are

Answer 3

fruit 一般也不用复数的形式，但表种类时就用fruits，culture也是。但furniture就和people一样是集合名词，所以不能加s

追问

那是furniture is 还是furniture are

Answer 4

furniture 是不可数名词 所以不加s
culture 有时可数有时不可数 看意思
字典里就有详细解释

追问

那是furniture is 还是furniture are

追答

is 不可数名字后面就是用 is

Answer 5

furniture 不可数名词 be动词应该用is 。 a piece of furniture
culture 一般也是不可数的，但他也有可数的时候。这里是不同种类的，所以可以+s
