何爲限定詞？

限定詞，顧名思義，是用來限定名詞的一類詞。我們知道，名詞指代人、物、事、時、地、情感、概念等實體或抽象事物的詞，但是在句子中，某一名詞是特指，還是類指，是確定數量，還是不確定數量，這些都要靠“限定詞”來決定。

因此，限定詞是在名詞詞組中對名詞中心詞起特指、類指以及表示確定數量和非確定數量等限定作用的詞類。

英語的限定詞有以下幾類：

1.冠詞：定冠詞、不定冠詞、零冠詞

The red book is mine.

There is a pen and  an apple on the desk.   

Time is money.

2.物主限定詞：my, your, his, her, our, your, their, one's, its. 

My bike is broken.

3.名詞屬格：John's, my friend's.
