1. 在现代英语中,thank用作名词表示“感谢”时,只用复数形式,不用单数形式。如:
Thanks for listening. 谢谢收听。
We expressed our thanks.我们表达了自己的谢意。
My wife also asks to join her greeting and thanks. 我妻子也要我顺致她的问候和感谢。
若要加语气,名词thanks有时可用many, a thousand等修饰。如:
A thousand thanks for your invitation. 非常感谢你的邀请。
Many thanks for your letter of 17 March. 非常感谢您3月17日的来信。
注:汉语中说“多谢”,英语可说成Thanks. / Many thanks. / Thanks a lot. / Thanks very much. 等。但是,根据英语习惯,我们可以说Thanks a lot,却不能说:Thank you a lot.
单词:thanks的近义词、反义词、形近词辨析
thank/thanks
Thanks for telling me about it.谢谢你告诉了我这件事。
Thank you for showing me the way.谢谢你给我指路。
<辨析> thank 既可作名词又可作动词。作名词时,只能用复数形式,不能作单数形式,可以说thanks a lot,many thanks 或 a thousand thanks,不可说 a thank;作动词时是及物动词,表示“向......表示感谢”,通常用于 thank+sb.+for+sth.(或doing sth.)结构。试译:
1)谢谢你的指点。
误:Thank your advice.
正:Thank you for your advice.
2)谢谢你和我们一起照相。
误:Thank you to take pictures with us.
正:Thank you for taking pictures with us.
