Answer 2

Although it's difficult to know what may be unfamiliar to you, a word that is very commonly used but confusing for many is the noun media.

The noun "media" is the plural form of the singular noun medium when it is a word for:

• a particular form or system of communication (such as newspapers, radio, or television);
• the materials or methods used by an artist;
• the thing by which or through which something is done;
• a surrounding condition or environment.

Example sentences:

• The medium the artist usually uses is water colors. (singular)
• The media are in a frenzy over the his indiscretions. (plural)

The plural form of the singular noun 'medium' as a word for a person who claims to be able to communicate with the spirits of dead people is mediums.

Example sentences:

I consulted a medium about my job prospects. (singular)

Several mediums have businesses in this neighborhood. (plural)

Another word that is confusing as singular or plural is the noun glass. The noun "glass" has a number of forms based on use:

• The substance glass used for producing glass objects is an uncountable noun, a word for a substance. It has no plural form.
• Glass made into sheets for windows, picture frames, etc. is a uncountable noun. A partitive noun (also called a noun counter) is a noun used to count or quantify an uncountable noun, for example, sheets of glass, panes of glass, or pieces of glass.
• For glass formed into objects such as ornaments, decorations, jewelry, etc., the word glass is used as an attributive noun(a noun used as an adjective) and the noun it describes is countable; for example a glass swan or glass swans, or a glass bottle or glass bottles.
• Glass made into drinking vessels takes the same name as the substance they are made from, a glass, which is a countable noun, the plural form is glasses, for example, one glass of juice or two glasses of juice.
• The last variation is the noun glasses as a word for eyewear is an uncountable noun, it has no singular form. This type of uncountable noun is called a binary noun, a word for something with two parts making up the whole, a shortened form for 'a pair of', for example, a pair of glasses or two pairs of glasses.

NOTE: The noun glass is an uncountable noun for any use except as a glass that holds a beverage.
