请问这里的green是不可数名词 the colour of grass and the leaves of most plants and trees 吗?
由于假如用以下意思,patches of 应该加上 greens 才对?
[可数名词] an area of grass, especially in the middle of a town or village (尤指城镇或村庄中心的)草地,草坪,公共绿地
Children were playing on the village green.
孩子们在村中心的草地上玩耍。
这里指一块块的绿色,引申为一片片绿地。这里green 不可数,不可以用复数。指村庄或城镇中间的一片绿地才能可数,你看字典上给了具体的讲解,指in the middle of atown or village. 而且,是英国英语。
