易错句子I bought six book yesterday.
正确表达I bought six books yesterday.
数词 six 后面的可数名词必须用复数形式。汉语名词没有单复数的形态变化(“六本书”),所以中国学习者容易漏掉词尾 -s。既然 six 表示的数量超过一个,名词就要写成 books。

易错句子There are six hundreds students in the hall.
正确表达There are six hundred students in the hall.
hundred、thousand、million 前面有具体数词时不变复数,只有表示“成百上千”这种笼统数量时才说 hundreds of。汉语“六百”本身不体现数的变化,学习者便容易错误地加上 -s,应保持 hundred。
