1、各种数字的英文读法(1)年号的读法:1979nineteen seventy-nine or nineteen hundred(and ) seventy-nine;(2)电话号码、货币的读法:1023one o two three;1227one double two(or two two)seven ;4.25four dollars(and)twenty-five(cents) ;(3)小数点的读法:13.91thirteen decimal(point)nine one;0.23= nought decmial two three;(4)算术式的读法:2+3=5 Two plus th
2、ree is (equals,isequal to)five.5-3=2 Five minus three is equal to two.32=6 Three times two is six. or Three by two are six.93=3 Nine divided by three makes three.1. 整数和小数的读法3.24可以读作 three point twenty-four 或 three twenty-four。在美国买东西都要含税, 所以价钱多半都带有小数点 , 通常小数点可以说 point, 也可以直接省略。 另外比较正式的说法为 three dolla
3、rs and twenty-four cents, 但是在一般日常生活中几乎是听不到这种读法,而是直接读为 three twenty-four。在美国开支票的机会很多, 要注意的是,支票上小数的写和读与平时有所不同。在支票上,金额不仅要用阿拉伯数字写出,而且还要用英语在金额栏的最左边写出。其中整数部分的第一个字母要大写, 小数部分则用 xx/100 来表示, 并在最后加上 only。例如 12.87 写为 Twelve dollar and 87/100 only。1,245 可读为 twelve forty-five,one thousand two hundred and forty-fi
4、ve 或 twelve hundred and forty-five。一般来说, 四位数的读法是两个数字一起读, 如12-45。但有时为了让对方听得更清楚(特别是跟钱有关的时候) ,会把 thousand 和 hundred 读出来, 像上面的第二种读法。 另外, 像第三种读法,美国人也很喜欢把 one thousand two hundred 直接说成 twelve hundred,例如1,200 可以读为 twelve hundred,当然也可以说 one thousand and two hundred,这就是我们从教科书上学的读法了。五位数的读法是前两个数一组, 后两个一组,中间的自己
5、一组。例如 35,891 经常读为 thirty-five thousand eight hundred and ninety-one。而六位数如100,000 则读为one hundred thousand。由于在英语中没有十万这个字, 所以十万要用 one hundred thousand, 一亿要用 one hundred million。这两个要多练习, 不然很难熟练运用。整数中比较特殊的就是电话号码了,读电话号码的原则是在清楚的基础上,越简单越好。人们在读电话号码时,习惯一个数字一个数字地说, 以求清楚, 但有时为了方便起见, 也会以十位数为单位, 两个两个一起说。例如 770-21
6、45 可以读为 seven seven zero, two one four five,也可以读为 seven seven o, twenty-one forty-five。总之,不管如何读,一定要清楚,不要引起歧义。2. 分数和科学记数的读法1/2 可以读为 one half 或 one over two。1/2 的说法跟 1/3、1/4 都不一样, 它不读为 one second,而要用 one half。而 one of two 常用在数学上, 强调 1 除以 2, 这种说法在日常生活中用得比较少。至于1/3 是 one third,1/4 是 one fourth 等,大家对这种说法都
7、已经很熟悉了,在此不多说,但要注意两点:在日常生活中,用 one quarter 表示1/4比用 one fourth 更多一些;2/3 要说 two thirds, 也就是说分母那个 third 要加 s,不要忘记。科学记数如1.23 10-4 可读为 one point two three times ten to the minus four(negative four);one point two three times ten minus four 或 one point two three ten minus four。第一个是最正确的说法, 但有时为了简便会有不同程度的省略。像第
8、二、三个省略适用在别人知道你在说科学符号的场合,例如老师上课时,或同学讨论功课时,不然别人有可能会误会你的意思。3. 时间的读法时间的读法是先读时, 再读分。像4:28 读为 four twenty-eight。至于整点的情况,读法就更简单了,4:00 读为 Its four oclock. 或 Its four.。在生活中,4:05 不是读为 four five, 而是 five past four 或 four o five;3:50 不是说 three fifty,而是 ten to four,当然也可以说成 three fifty, 但是 ten to four 这样的说法就相当于中文
9、的“还有10分就四点了“;5:30 常说成 five and half 或 half past five,相当于中文的五点半了。4. 一个重要的应用在报地址的时候, 常有这种数字和英文字母混合的情况, 但是由于 B, D 和 T 读起来很容易混淆, 所以习惯上会加上一小句话来说明 , 如 B as a in boy, T as in a teacher, D as in a dog。这样别人就可以很清楚地了解你在说哪个字母,这样,123D 就可以这么读: one two three D as in a dog。1.Cardinals and Ordinals 基数和序数(1)100以内的数词基
