这个问题真好. 虽然typical是个形容词,但是在词组typical of里面的typical已经名词化了.也就是说这里的typical=typical +对应名词,typical of=typical + 对应名词 of 比如 typical of=typical characteristic of表示”是.的典型特征“. 原句中Typical of the grassland dwellers=Typical dweller of the grassland dwellers Typical grassland dwellers 也是说得通的,这里typical就是一形容词.不过这个时候后面的谓语该用复数are,后面的表语似乎也要用复数. 以下为词典原句.其中的typical实际上都已经名词化了. Snow is typical of winter in the north. 雪是北方冬天的特征. It is typical of him to take hard jobs . 这幅画是他早期作品相当典型的代表作. 欢迎探讨词法语法问题.

您好,【无法估算有多少居民受到疾病侵袭】(含estiamte)的翻译可以考虑:
1)It is impossible to estimate how many residents have been affected by the disease.
2)It is impossible to estimate how many inhabitants have been affected by the illness.
3)It is impossible to estimate as to how many dwellers have been struck down by the malady.
这里 residents、inhabitants、dwellers 都可以译为(居民)需要看情景;disease、illness、malady 都可以译为(疾病)。
假如(无法估计)可以使用 estimate 的其他形式,还可以考虑 inestimatable 这个英语单词;
1)It is inestimable as to how many residents have been struck down by the disease.
