https://reurl.cc/0W3bEM Why is 0 plural? Like 0 seconds or 0 apples. It is only plural when referring to objects you can count discretely (eg. zero matchsticks). Zero does not pluralize a noun which can't be quantified (eg. zero tolerance, zero effort). Grammatically, zero is synonymous to not any, and since any refers to an arbitrary number of countable objects, we pluralize the noun it goes with (eg. I do not have any apples). -- 人文社科爛劣譯本 分十一項分類整理 https://1453liencai.blogspot.com/2024/05/blog-post.html -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 114.36.208.77 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Eng-Class/M.1760019258.A.8DF.html
