troop作“軍隊(duì),部隊(duì)”解時(shí),通常用復(fù)數(shù)形式,可與較大數(shù)字連用,而不與較小數(shù)字連用。

troop作名詞時(shí)意思是“部隊(duì)”,轉(zhuǎn)化成動(dòng)詞意思是“成群結(jié)隊(duì)地走”,指眾人集結(jié)成隊(duì)去做某一件事情(多指走路),還可指成群結(jié)隊(duì)地聚攏來(lái)或散開(kāi),常表示一個(gè)整體,其主語(yǔ)一般為復(fù)數(shù)形式的名詞或代詞。

troop多用作不及物動(dòng)詞,有時(shí)也可用作及物動(dòng)詞。

everyone雖是單數(shù)形式,但具有復(fù)數(shù)意義,所以也可用作troop的主語(yǔ)。
