This is a good thread. I might be able to learn a thing or two
 kudos. My English has always been manglish / singaporean english or whatever you wanna call it. But when it comes to proper English, i cant even speak fluently. Too many grammatical errors.  |

QUOTE(reconnaissance @ Aug 11 2011, 02:17 PM) Alright, I'll budge in. Fish is both singular and plural. Fishes is only plural, however, it is used only to address many types of the fish. If an aquarium is filled with only piranha, there are many fish in that aquarium. If an aquarium is filled with piranha, sharks, clownfish and so, there are many fishes in that aquarium. Taught within the syllabus of English in Science and Technology. Subject to errors and correction.   |
