Ví dụ: I have  bananas và  I have  a banana  có sự khác biệt rõ ràng, bạn có nhận thất mạo từ  “a”  ở trước banana không? Thêm nữa Bananas  are  yellow và a banana  is  yellow bạn có nhận thấy động từ đi kèm có sự khác biệt không; danh từ số nhiều sẽ tương đương vói ư chỉ ngữ they và danh từ số ít sẽ tương đương vói it. Cơ bản là thế. Còn về danh không đếm được thì bạn phải cân, đo, đong như những...

A  woman was haughty and always gave others venomous words when they made her unhappy. She not only scolded the people but also she scolded their parent and their grandparents. When the woman died, the death god forced her to rebirth in a turtle. The turtle spent its life in a pond alone, having normal days with fish and shrimps, her food. One year, it didn’t rain.

Help you have food in this difficult time”, said the storks in happy voice. “Sister! Who is your sister?...
