[誤] Please give me two letter papers.
[正] Please give me two sheets of letter paper.
[析] paper作為紙講為不可數名詞。
[誤] Each student must write paper on what he learned.
[正] Each student must write a paper on what he learned.
[析] 這裡的paper作為論文講，是可數名詞。paper的這種用法還可以用於證件、報紙、考卷等。
parent
[誤] My parents and I are both interested in football.
[正] My parents and I are all interested in football.
[析] parents即為父母、雙親，指兩個人，加上自己為三個人，所以只能用all而不能用both.
pass
[誤] The ship pasted the channel.
[正] The ship passed the channel.
[析] pass為動詞，而past則為副詞，不要混淆，如： My father has been ill for the past two weeks. All the students passed the exam.
pay
[誤] Please help me do this job, and I will pay for you later.
[正] Please help me do this job and I will pay you later.

[正] There are five hundred people here.

[析] people作為人講時為複數名詞，如要講一個人應用one person, 而不能用people, 講若干人時用people而不能加s，這樣的用法還有police(警察)等，這些概念用單數時要換其他的詞. 如： people-a person; police-policeman policewoman; youth-a young man/woman.
picture
[誤] There are some spots in the picture.
[正] There are some spots on the picture.
[誤] There is a young woman on the picture.

pity
[誤] What pity that her mother must always suffer!
[正] What a pity that her mother must always suffer!
[析] pity作為遺憾之事講常加不定冠詞;但要注意作為同情、憐憫講則不加冠詞，為不可數名詞，如： I feel pity for you. 它還可以用作動詞，如： He pitied the poor people.
[誤] I have pity for you.
[正] I have pity on you.
[析] 可憐某人時應用have (take) pity on somebody，這是個慣用法。
