Question

cake是可数名词还是不可数名词

Answer 1

cake即可做可数名词又可做不可数名词。

cake做可数名词还是不可数名词是根据句中的意思来判断的，当cake表示 “糕饼”、‘意思来判断的，当cake表示 “糕饼”、‘数;但若指一个完整的蛋糕或指切成一块块的蛋糕，则是可数。

cake可以用作名词，cake用作名词的基本意思是“糕，糕饼”, 引申可表示类似糕饼的食物或块状物。cake作“糕，糕饼”解时，既可用作可数名词，也可用作不可数名词。“一 块蛋糕”常用a piece of cake来表示。作“饼状食物”“
块状物”解时，-般只用作可数名词。cake还可用作单位词,意思是“块’,其后接of表示数量。修饰不可数名词表示复数意义时，cake须用其复数形式cakes。
