※ 引述《steven225 (留戀)》之銘言：
: 最近在寫英文的論文，不過一直被單複數困擾著；因此，
: 想在這裡尋問大家一下。
: 1.「有百分之七十六的病人能夠記住他們醫師的名字」。
: 以上這句話要寫成
: 76% of the patients were able to remember their physicians’names
: 還是
: 76% of the patients were able to remember their physician's name
their heads, not their head
their noses, not their nose
their physicians
their physicians’names
: 2.「病人的滿意度」。
: 以上這詞要寫成
: Patient satisfaction, patient's satisfcation, patients' satisfaction,
: 還是patients satisfaction
Patient satisfaction is an important and commonly used indicator for
measuring the quality in health care. Patient satisfaction affects clinical
outcomes, patient retention, and medical malpractice claims. It affects the
timely, efficient, and patient-centered delivery of quality health care.
Patient satisfaction is thus a proxy but a very effective indicator to
measure the success of doctors and hospitals. This article discusses as to
how to ensure patient satisfaction in dermatological practice.
: 3.「無論是結果A還是結果B，都大於結果C和結果D的任一個結果」。
: 以上這句話可以寫成
: Both result A and result B are larger than result C and result D嗎？
Either of result A and result B is larger
than either of result C and result D.
: 4.如果我要表達「在五個不同城鎮裡，便利商店的總數量不一樣」。
: 那我要寫成
: The number of convenience stores was different in five towns
: 還是
: The numbers of convenience stores were different in five towns
The numbers of convenience stores in five towns were different.
: 5.如果我要表達「有車子和沒車子的人是不一樣的」。
: 可以寫成
: The people with cars and without cars are different嗎？
: 另外想問「The people with cars」可以寫成「The people with a car」嗎？
: 問題有點多，如果大家願意的話，再麻煩解答一下，感謝幫忙。
The people with cars are different from those without cars.
