英语自学网

　　限定词，顾名思义，是用来限定名词的一类词。我们知道，名词指代人、物、事、时、地、情感、概念等实体或抽象事物的词，但是在句子中，某一名词是特指，还是类指，是确定数量，还是不确定数量，这些都要靠“限定词”来决定。
        　　因此，限定词是在名词词组中对名词中心词起特指、类指以及表示确定数量和非确定数量等限定作用的词类。
        　　英语的限定词有以下几类：
        　　1.冠词：定冠词、不定冠词、零冠词
        　　The red book is mine.
        　　There is a pen and an apple on the desk.
        　　Time is money.
        　　2.物主限定词：my, your, his, her, our, your, their, one's, its.
        　　My bike is broken.
        　　3.名词属格：John's, my friend's.
        　　John's brother will go to school next year.
        　　4.指示限定词：this, that, these, those, such
        　　This story is very interesting.

half, several, many, much, (a) few, (a) little, other, another.
        　　There are some books on the desk.
        　　Do you have enough money?
        　　8.基数词和序数词倍数词和分数词
