我是五年级的老人,以前国中时,很流行考一种文法题
He is ___________.
(A) Chinese (B) a Chinese
杨荣一和其他参考书公布的答案都是B.
考上了建中,高二的英文老师据说是师大英语系第一名毕业,
他上课时主动提起这题,说A也对。
最近听到外国人说A才对,B很罕见,不能算是对的选项。
Wiktionary usage note:
As with all nouns formed from -ese, the countable singular form ("I am a
Chinese") is uncommon and often taken as incorrect, although it is rather
frequent in East Asia as a translation for the demonyms written 中国人 in
Chinese characters or Japanese kanji.
