发帖数: 6523 | 3 yeah, this would work. Well, for certain word in a sentence, we can often
replace it by "what, where, who, when, how many", etc, but it doesn't seem
so straightforward to find a word to replace this order number.
For instance,
He is the 5th one to reach the destination.
And we want to ask about this order number:
He is the ____ one to reach the destination.
It's just not so natural to replace the blank by a single word. Is there
such a single word?

发帖数: 6523 | 4 这么说吧，
比如说我们要问 "下次的奥运会是第几届了？"
如果我们问 "How many Olympics games have there been before the next one?"
感觉有点拖沓，因为还得提问者自己再加个一。有没有什么简洁的说法啊？
