ADVICE and INFORMATION 🧐 🤔

INFORMATIONS 😲

ADVICES 😲

ADVICE and INFORMATION are both uncountable nouns.

Because of this, we never add an 'S' at the end for plural.

We never say ADVICES ❌ or INFORMATIONS.❌

Thanks for the advice.✅
Thanks for the advices.❌

This information is very useful.✅
These informations are very useful.❌

If you would like to make them plural, you can use PIECES 👌

For example:

-You have given me many useful pieces of advice✅

-There are two pieces of information that I forgot to give you. ✅

However, it's usually unnecessary to use PIECES to make them plural. Most of the time, we use ADVICE and INFORMATION as uncountable nouns.

Thank you for the information.

I learned these pieces of valuable information when I was in college
