n.(名詞)quantity的基本意思是“數量”,是正式用語。作與質量相對而言的“數量”解時是不可數名詞,指事物的“量”或“總數量”時是可數名詞。quantity強調大批計量,含有準確測量的意味。
quantity不能用much, less等表示“多少”意義的詞修飾,可用large, great, small等表示“大小”意義的詞修飾。
a (large〔great〕) quantity of或quantities of的意思是“大量”,其后均可跟不可數名詞或復數名詞。在句中作主語時, a quantity of接不可數名詞時,謂語動詞用單數形式,接可數名詞復數時,謂語動詞用復數形式; quantities of修飾不可數名詞或可數名詞復數時,謂語動詞都用復數形式。
n.(名詞)quantity, aggregate, amount, number, sum, total, whole
這組詞的共同意思是“總數、總合”。其區別是：
aggregate指把數目的各個部分加在一起；amount指累積的結果；number指數字或東西相加所得的總數；sum指最后的總結果，表示截至現在的總數, 還有增加的可能；total和whole都指合計的結果的全體，total常指大的數量，whole也含有各部分總和的意味。quantity主要表示物質的量。
