[求譯] 兩倍的人(學生) 要怎麼寫?

[petroleum1 (viceroy)]

學校比去年多收了兩倍的學生


The school recruits students who are twice as many as the last year.

The double amount of students are recruited rather than last year.

不曉得這兩種寫法有錯嗎?

謝謝

推 shawshien: The school doubled its student enrollment this year
推 nyu5765: 兩句感覺都有點怪
推 naushtogo: 兩種都不太正確
→ naushtogo: School enrollment has doubled this year. 就好了
→ naushtogo: recruit 一般用在工作或軍隊上
→ naushtogo: 中文多兩倍有三倍的意思，如果是三倍請把 doubled 改成
→ naushtogo:  tripled
推 SnooBee: 字典有寫student enrolments可數，使用複數比較好
推 naushtogo: 是都可以唷，請看字典 enrollment 的例句：
→ naushtogo: http://www.learnersdictionary.com/definition/enroll
→ naushtogo: 個人偏向單數，指總註冊人數。用複數，一份一份註冊資
→ naushtogo: 料算也可以。
→ naushtogo: Google 學校註冊人數成長/上升/下降的各種句子，單數的
→ naushtogo: 使用情況是複數的2~3倍。
→ SnooBee: 會不會以訛傳訛的謠言搜尋結果總數大於正確資訊的總數？y
推 naushtogo: 樓上是說 Merriam-Webster 字典的例句是以訛傳訛？
→ naushtogo: 如果你 Google "school enrollment has grown" 出現的
→ naushtogo: 各學校公文和澳洲教育部網站是以訛傳訛？
推 b9910: 建議查一下recruit,admit,enroll三者差異
