清concept時間:
Countable nouns 可以分singular and plural而....
Uncountable nouns 都可以分singular (most of the cases) and plural (fewer cases)
.
先睇乜嘢叫做SINGULAR 同PLURAL
.
Singular VS Plural nouns:
a/one banana VS two bananas
an/one egg VS two eggs
an/one apple VS a kilo of apples
a/one baby VS two babies
a/one dress VS three dresses
.
PLURAL NOUN = SINGULAR + -S (usually ONLY!) 但係仲有一樣野叫IRREGULAR NOUNS!! 即係即使係countable nouns 都唔一定加S 邊位plural forms. 佢哋就係因為唔係直接加S變做佢嘅plural form 所以叫做irregular nouns. 🙌🏻
.
例子：
man —> men
woman —> women
child —> children
foot —> feet
person —> people
sheep —> sheep
fish —> fish/fishes
louse —> lice
以下有些NOUNS 係必定經常PLURAL .
例如：
clothes
jeans
shorts
glasses / spectacles (formal)
sunglasses
scissors
trousers (British English) / pants (American English)

如果要將佢哋變為可數嘅就要加個quantifier 量詞啦，例如：a pair of jeans.
我哋再睇睇乜嘢叫做COUNTABLE 同UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS
Countable nouns 係可以數到嘅名詞, something we can count (喺呢度唔詳細比例子講啦）uncountable nouns 係唔可以數到嘅名詞，例子：
food: sugar, salt, meat
materials: meat, wood, plastic
school subjects and languages: history, art, English
ideas and feelings: advice, time, information, love
groups of similar things: furniture, luggage / baggage (mainly American English), money
