someone
1.someone作“某人”解。例如:Get a light, someone? 不作“某一个”解。说“某一个”该用some one。例如:Some one of his friends will help him. 和Choose some one of these pictures for your room. 把some one用作“某人”解也可以,但不很普通。
2.someone不可用作“若干人”或“某某若干人”解,下面两句意思不同:
- Someone says so. (某人[只有一个人]这样说。)
- Some say so. (若干人[有些人]这样说。)
3.参见somebody 2
4.用了someone,不可用one,one's等词指它,如不可说Someone has left one's handkerchief on the table,该把one's改作his或her。
