fifty dollars in notes,a fifty-dollar note
Fifty dollars in notes的意思是钞票数张,共计五十元。dollars是可数名词,故在词尾加-s.a fifty-dollar note 是一张五十元的钞票,这里的dollar作定语用,故其后不加-s.
通过下列句子的比较,可以进一步看出它们的差别:
I gave him a twenty-dollar note.
我给他一张二十元的钞票。
I gave him twenty dollars in notes.
我给他钞票若干张,共计二十元。
There are ten fifty-dollar notes on the desk.
桌上有十张五十元的钞票。
There are five hundred dollars in notes on the desk.
桌上有共值五百元的钞票若干张。
请注意,He has changed his note.的意思是他已改变语调,不是他已换了钞票,如要表达此意,应该说:
He has changed the banknotes.
在change ones note中,note作态度或口气解;在change ones banknotes中,note作钞票解。在下面一语中,我们也要注意note的涵义:to compare notes是交换意见,不是对比钞票或核对笔记。
