词语用法
n.(名词)
- inch用作名词时,一般为可数名词,表示“英寸(略作in.)”,也可表示距离、程度等的“少许,一点”,一般用单数,还可作“身高,材料”解,此时常用复数。 every inch意思是“完全,彻底”, by inches意思是“只差一点儿,渐渐地”,to an inch的意思是“精确地,丝毫不差地”,within an inch of意思是“差点儿”,这些短语在句中常用作表语。
v.(动词)
- inch用作名词时意思为“英寸”,用作动词时则表示“一英寸一英寸地缓慢地移动”。inch用于比喻也可指物价等抽象事物“缓慢变化”。 inch可用作及物动词接简单宾语,也可用作不及物动词。

n.(名词)

误 Twelve inches are equal to one foot.
正 Twelve inches is equal to one foot.
析 以计量尺寸的量词inch作主语时,不管它前面的数字有多大,谓语动词一律用单数形式。同类的词还有hours, days, weeks, years, dollars, pounds, dozens, miles等。
