“论文数”常见的英文表达是 “number of papers” 或 “paper count” 。
number of papers:是最常用、最直接的表述,强调论文的数量这一概念。例如:We need to analyze the number of papers published by each researcher in the past five years.(我们需要分析过去五年每位研究者发表的论文数量。)
paper count:相对更简洁一些,在日常交流或一些非正式的书面表达中偶尔使用。例如:The paper count of this department has increased significantly this year.(今年这个部门的论文数有了显著增长。 )
