名词在句子中承担什么功能,由其在句子中的句子成分来决定。词性分为名词、动词、形容词、副词等实词以及连词、介词、感叹词、冠词等虚词;句子按其成分分主语、宾语、谓语、定语、状语及补语等。我们看名词可以作哪些句子成分:
①作主语。如
A few boys are playing under the tree.
②作宾语。如
I saw a few boys playing under the tree.
③作表语。如

④作定语。一个名词作定语修饰另一个名词,常表示材料、用途和内容等。如
arms race 、air raid、alarm clock等

a brake on public spending.
⑤作补语。如
We might call it a mistake in tactics.
