I've noticed that the Japanese have a lot of trouble knowing when to form and when not to form the plural. Often the Japanese put words like music and information into the plural form, in this case "musics" and "informations." Funny how they don't seem to understand the concept of countable and uncountable nouns. ばか日本人。

Yes, just like it's funny how you might have trouble understanding the concept of tones in Chinese or masculine/feminine in Spanish, because there is no such thing as plural in Japanese.  Faggot.

Ever watch one of those documentaries where they talk about hiroshima and they japanese people are dubbed over with people that can speak english?  If the japs can't speak english right then it obviously means they can't speak their own language right?

habeeb it. Japanese have a lot of trouble with any foreign languages. Not because they are stupid though.

Japanese language has no plurals. That is all. BTW: Don't insult them because of their trouble in learning english if you are too much of a pussy to learn another language yourself.

Err... yeah it does, but not in a very limited sense (personal pronouns and proper nouns).

-達
-等
-共
-方

also in verbs, for example: you would never say 行きましょう to yourself. it would be with another person "LET'S GO!"
Let us Go.  = Plural

Those particles are not plural marks, but collective marks, which is subtly but distinctly different.

That's a pretty ridiculous argument.

i'm the poster of 14, i wasn't making an argument really
you just can't really think of plurals in japanese as you can in other languages, there is just nothing to compare it to, there are serveral situations in verb conjugation that imply plural, but don't exactly express it
