查了一下,这是英语和美语的区别,英语加and, 具体为什么要加,我觉得可能和英文三位进制有关系,可能更严谨。所以阿,你还别说,suv,你生把人家西蒙一英国绅士,吓唬成山姆大叔了 % }$ u! t( W' `9 t* X1 C7 b0 y2 N. _ v2 l7 r/ t
Note that in American English, many students are taught not to use the word and anywhere in the whole part of a number, so it is not used before the tens and ones. It is instead used as a verbal delimiter when dealing with compound numbers. Thus, instead of "three hundred and seventy-three", one would say "three hundred seventy-three".

继续钻研,有了成果来汇报

我问来答案了,和我猜的方向差不多,能人同学说:这因为来源于英国古老的算术方式,举例: ' L. s V: Z- q* U& y% U: s; l 1 K5 E# h* m. L: ^3 l z数字16, 古代说法就是 fourt night and two. 因为fourt night 实际上是fourteen, teen这个词是evening而来。所以14+2=16; X& L9 b/ M! C" l/ g6 A
" [! a! M1 k& | y i+ B再举例,数字403, 古代说法是 twenty score and three. 因为score古语代表20, 所以20*20+3=403 , `# H4 L2 j% X2 e. y( b6 m" g0 A * z% j, z) q1 }) J h# L你三大妈的理解就是,这和中国古代记数一样,比如二八女多娇,这实际上不是28岁熟女,而是2*8=16岁少女。 3 E9 F" u* N u9 M " m0 i3 o+ W9 ^9 J所以英语沿袭了古代的记数方式,还用and, 美语就不用。好,就这些,西蒙已经被你折磨了,回头你把数学老师也折磨一下下。
