centigrade,degree ,temperature区别This morning his temperature were 39 degrees centigrade.今天早上他烧到了39度.这是什么用法.centigrade是形容词,degree是名词.可不可以说This morning his temperature were 39 centigrade.
网友回答
不可以说This morning his temperature were 39 centigrade的.因为 centigrade是摄氏的意思.跟Fahrenheit（华氏）相对.
说温度的话,一定要有度的.不让你说This morning his temperature were 39 centigrade,就等于说“今天早上他烧到了39摄氏”就不对了.要说 degrees centigrade摄氏度.华氏度是：degrees fahrenheit.
这里是特殊用法.记得就行了.
