Существительному большинство соответствуют английские most, majority и most of. Most (прилагательное) предполагает приблизительный подсчет: most people like music, most flowers smell sweet. Majority (существительное) обычно имеет в виду количество, составляющее больше половины данного, точно подсчитанного числа; в отличие от русского большинство, majority обычно согласуется с существительным во множественном числе: большинство присутствующих на собрании было (высказалось) за предложение – the majority of those present at the meeting were in favour of the proposal (прилагательное most в данном случае употреблено быть не может). Most of (существительное) и majority очень близки по значению и различаются главным образом стилистической окраской: most of – более разговорное, majority – более официальное; употребляется, когда речь идет о собраниях, заседаниях, сессиях парламента и т. д. Majority, в отличие от most и most of, не употребляется с существительными, обозначающими предметы: most of the students и the majority of the students, но most of the pictures (majority в этом случае не употребляется).Трудности английского языка (лексический справочник).
