【问】 Children’s cloths for sale. Very reasonable prices. Phone 37092. 有本书上说，这则广告有错误。错在何处?
 【答】 cloth是不可数名词，意为“布料”、“织物”(material made from cotton，wool，etc)。
 I wanted to have a suit made so I bought three and a half yards of cloth. (NCE，Book 2，L.81)
 我想让人给我做一套衣服，所以我买了三码半布料。
 当cloth用来指特定用途的布(tablecloth，deskcloth)时，它是个可数名词，可以有复数形式cloths：
 1. She cleaned the window with an old cloth.
 她用一块破布擦窗户。
 2. Have you any cloths for polishing the furniture?
 你有擦家具的布吗?
 3. I've spilt my coffee all over the chair. Bring some cloths quickly please.我把咖啡全撒在椅子上了。请快拿些抹布来。
 clothes〔〕则是指“衣服”，只有复数形式：
 1. He wore ready-made clothes.
 他穿做现成的衣服。
 2. These clothes are new.
 这些衣服是新的。
 3. He had to buy a good many clothes.
 他必须买许多衣服。
 4. He soon changed into the dead man's clothes. (NCE，Book 2，L.81)
 他立即换上了死者的服装。
 因此，上面的广告应写成：Children's clothes for sale.
