可数名词有单数和复数两种形式。这和汉语不同，比如，在汉语中，我们说一个苹果，那就是一个苹果，没什么特殊变化。你要说三个苹果，只需把“一”换成 “三”就可以了。而在英语中，一个苹果是one apple，三个苹果是 three apples，不仅数量词变化了，名词也有相应的变化。下面我们就将名词变复数的规则分为规则变化和不规则变化。
第一部分：规则变化
| 一般情况(包括以e结尾的名词) | 加-s | -s在清辅音[p][t][k] [f]后读 | Cups, cats, cakes, roofs, flags, keys, faces |
| 在浊辅音和元音后读[z] | |||
| 口诀：清清浊浊元浊 | |||
| 以s, x, ch, sh结尾 | 加-es | Classes, boxes, watches, brushes | |
| 以辅音+y结尾 | 变y为i，加es | 读[z] | Cities, countries, studies |
| 以元音+y结尾 | 加-s | 读[z] | Boys, rays, days |
有人还把以下两个加入了名词有规则变复数的行列：
| 情况 | 构成法 | 读音 | 例词 | |
| 以o 结尾 | 以f, fe结尾 | 变f, fe为v，再加-es | 读[vz] | Leaf-leaves |
| Wife-wives | ||||
| Thief-thieves | ||||
| Half-halves | ||||
| Knife-knives | ||||
| Wolf-wolves | ||||
| Self-selves | ||||
| Loaf-loaves | ||||
Roofs, proofs, chiefs, beliefs, gulfs |
第二部分：不规则变化
我们经常会看到有些名词变复数时并没有遵循上述规则。这就是名词的不规则变化。还有一些名词，单复数是同一个形式的。不过，我们还是可以通过一些比较，发现其中的一些奥妙。以下我将为大家讲讲名词的不规则变化。
一、有些名词中保存了英语中古旧的复数形式，如：
man-men woman-women
tooth-teeth foot-feet
child-children goose-geese
mouse-mice ox-oxen
二、有些是外来词，仍保有原来的复数形式，如：
Phenomenon-phenomena(现象)
Formula-formulae(公式)
Thesis-theses(论文)
Basis-bases(基础)
Analysis-analyses(分析)
Criterion-criteria(标准)
Crisis-crises(危机)
Appendix-appendices(附录)
三、部分单词的复数形式不变。
例：fish→fish; sheep→sheep; cattle→cattle; deer→deer; salmon→salmon, means→means
四、compound nouns，这类复数词是以主要的名词来表示
例：daughter-in-law→daughters-in-law 媳妇; father-in-law→fathers-in-law岳父
man-of-war→men-of-war兵舰; maid-servant→maid-servants
step-son→step-sons晚子; son-in-law→sons-in-law。
但是，也有些合成名词，特别是由man和woman构成的合成名词，里面所含的成分，全都要变为复数，如：
Man-servant-men-servants，woman doctor-women doctors等
五、有些名词经常是带着-s词尾的，但通常都作单数看待，如：
Phonetics(语音学)，physics(物理学)，optics(光学)，politics(政治)，news(新闻)等。
六、另一些名词则以复数词出现的机会较多
例：bellows风箱; clothes; police; shorts短裤; scissors剪刀; spectacles眼镜; shears大剪刀，trousers长裤，wages工资，belongings所有物， surroundings环境，savings储蓄，findings调查结果，arms武器，clothes衣服，stairs楼梯，等
七、另外还有一些名词，其复数形式有时可表示特别意思，
例：goods货物，waters水域，fishes(各种)鱼，papers文件，证件，greens青菜，manners礼貌，ruins废墟，troops军队，looks外貌，times时代，等
第三部分：不可数名词的计量方法
(1)一般用“数字+of+计量单位+名词”表示，(注意：当数字大于一时，表示计量单位的名词可以有复数形式)。如：
a piece of news 一则新闻 a piece of meat 一块肉 a glass of wine一杯酒 two bowls of rice 两碗米 a sum of money 一笔钱 five bags of flour 一袋面粉 a drop of water 一滴水 three bottles of milk 三瓶牛奶 two pieces of advice 两条建议
(2)用much/some/ a little/ little/ a lot of/ plenty of+不可数名词
