several表示肯定還是否定

英語中，像hundred, thousand, million, billion這些數詞，可用來表示“具體”的數字，也可以用來表示“大概”（不确切）的數字。例如：三百人：three hundred people；數百人：hundreds of people。

表示具體數目，之前加one (a), two, three, seven等具體數字：one (two, three, seven) hundred people，之後不帶of。

若表示“大概”（不确切）的數字，數詞本身用複數形式，後跟of，其前不能有具體的數字修飾，例如：

hundreds of workers

thousands of cows

tens of thousands of trees

但是，這些數詞前被 some, several, a few 等詞修飾時，兩種用法均可。可能是為了語句簡練，這些不具體的數字當做具體數字用。

a few hundred policemen = a few hundreds of policemen

several thousand houses = several thousands of houses

some million trees = some millions of trees

▲比較：

Several hundred workers were waiting outside the factory. （正）

Several hundreds workers were waiting outside the factory.（誤）

Several hundred of workers were waiting outside the factory.（誤）

若改為：

Several hundred of the workers were waiting outside the factory.（正）

Several hundreds of workers were waiting outside the factory.（正）

分析：

Several hundred of workers were waiting outside the factory.（誤）

該句之所以錯，是因為中心詞是workers，而Several hundred of是修飾語，多了一個of。

Several hundred of the workers were waiting outside the factory.（正）

該句之所以對，是因為中心詞是Several hundred（數詞可以作主語），而of the workers是定語，修飾Several hundred。既然作定語，那麼workers前應加the表示特指。

Several hundred of the workers意為：那些工人中的數百人
