There are many Chinese food and western food.

问题描述:

There are many Chinese food and western food.

这句话不对.
food 既是可数名词又是不可数名词.
仅仅指"食物、食品"的时候是不可数名词.
例如:We can't live without food and water.
若表示某种特殊种类的食物,则可用作可数名词.
例如:Don’t eat too many dairy foods.
按照推断,这句话应该翻译成“世界上有各种中国菜和西式菜.”不表示某种特殊食物.
推荐翻译成为:There are many kinds of Chinese food and western food.
或者把many替换成为a lot of
