all their life与all their lives 哪个对?

问题描述:

all their life与all their lives 哪个对?

都可以,
第一句中的life作不可数名词,意思是”生活”;
第二句中的life作可数名词,意思是”生命”.

the former

表示各个个体“的一生”或一段“生活经历”用lives;表示群体共有共通的“生活”用life

all their lives

我觉得这个是有争议的.
如果理解为"生活",就可以用all their life
比如All their life didn't changed too much after the flood.
如果理解为"生命,则用lives就好了
This boat saved all their lives.

all their life

都可以啊
