∙ 11y agoMost English words fall into that category. For a start, only nouns and verbs can have a plural form. And many nouns have no plural: think of abstract nouns such as tenuousness and joylessness, for example.
Some nouns, such as sheep, take the same form in the plural as in the singular, which is a different thing altogether.

You’re mistaken on several words, and here’s a list of examples in conversation.
accommodations “He had an accommodation.”
bowels “When was your last bowel movement?”
clothes “…man of the cloth.”
communications “They had an open line of communication.”
intestines “Your large and small intestine make up your intestines.”
Look further back into Elizabethan era English. they had approximately 10 times the vocabulary that we do and not all of it superfluous. (Wroth. Somewhat equivalent of furious but much more so. They were wont to do so.) We have muted our abilities and stymied our *own* intellect for far too long. Be it from laziness or just lost over the span of centuries; whatever the reason, it’s why most people don‘t know the difference between its and it’s, their they’re and there or, the dreaded “could of” versus “could have.” Your and you’re.
Or say words like excape, expresso… et cetera.
The list goes on. Sadly.
