many a man什么意思？
“many a＋单数可数名词”形式上为单数，但意义上为复数(意为“许多”)，若用作主语，其谓语通常与形式一致而不与意义一致(即谓语用单数)。如：
Many a student has seen the film.
许多学生看过这部电影。
Many a fine man has died in that battle.
许多优秀的士兵死于那次战役。
Many a ship has been wrecked on those rocks.
许多船只毁于那些礁石之上。
Many a young man has tried and failed.
很多年轻人都试过，而且失败了。
Many a successful store has paid its rent cheerfully.
许多成功的店铺都非常乐意地付了房租。
注：“many a＋单数名词”是一个十分正式的结构，在口语或非正式文体中一般都用 many＋复数名词”代之。
