关于带连字符号的名词

在Alice in Wonderland中有这么一句话:

Her sister is reading a book, and with no-one to talk to, Alice is bored… and a bit sleepy.

请问:

1. 为什么这里 no-one 不是形容词而是名词?

2. 像 no-one 这样有连字符号连接但是是名词的单词还有哪些?

3. no-one 和 no one 有什么区别?

谢谢!

▲为什么这里 no-one 不是形容词而是名词?

答:这里的 no-one 既不是形容词,也不是名词,而是代词,是 no one 的另一拼写形式,与 nobody 同义。如:

No-one should start working life with a debt round their neck. 任何人都不该身背债务开始工作生涯。

No-one could use the computer unless they had a password. 除非知道密码,否则谁也用不了那台计算机。

There was no-one at the reception desk, so he pressed a bell for service. 接待处一个人也没有,于是他按了服务铃。

No-one in living memory has come back from that place alive. 在人们的记忆中,没有人从那个地方生还。

Jake went down to the bar, but there was no-one around that he knew. 杰克去了酒吧,但是周围一个人都不认识。

There’s no-one called Julia here. You must have the wrong number (=wrong telephone number). 这里没有叫朱莉娅的人。你肯定是拨错号码了。

▲像 no-one 这样有连字符号连接但是是名词的单词还有哪些?

答:前面说过,no-one 不是名词,而是代词。至于含有 no-这样的名词,举例如下:

Opposition parties are likely to bring a no-confidence motion against the government. 反对党很可能提出对政府的不信任案。

Motorists could lose their no-claims discount, even if they are not at fault in an accident. 即便驾驶员在事故中没有过错,他们也可能失去无索赔折扣。

His no-inflation bill serves as a useful counterweight to proposals less acceptable to the Committee. 他的反通货膨胀法案相对于那些不怎么让委员会满意的提案来说倒是一个有效的平衡。

Large numbers of refugees continue to flow from the troubled region into the no-man’s land.  大批难民不断从骚乱地区涌入无人地带。

▲no-one 和 no one 有什么区别?

答:没有区别,拼写形式不同而已。
