I know the proper answer, but I’m curious if everyone else does.

Is it Fork or Forks?

One or Two?

Singular or Plural?

Choose wisely.

 

[looks easy from here]

Obviously plural, because who doesn't have plural bikes? 😄

 

[chazpat]

Depends on if it/they are supporting a handlebar or handlebars.

Do you ask for a "pair of forks" or "some forks" at the dinner table and expect a single utensil? Do you say, "we should have turned left at those forks in the road", referring to a singular spot where the there was a "Y" in the road?

Pluralization is dumb.

How does a fork/s mount to the bicycle? Does it go through a headset, or headsets(headseats?)

I’ve had too much to drink on Christmas Eve, and I saw a provocative DJ post… what did you expect to happen?

Country specific, UK = forks, US = fork, UK - fanny, US - vagina

Why would one country be singular and the other plural? I kind of get English folks adding unnecessary letters, like “Colour” (so stupid)… but you can’t change the quantity of something.

Stop trying to straddle the fence and give us your real answer.

Edit: Fanny is also the American version of butthole iirc

I think he was just looking for a reason to say vagina

 

[Jayem]

How many forks do you get at the dinner table in the UK?

We don't ask for forks at the table we ask for a fork...just like we use a pitch fork or fork in the road.

Forks is slang just like using the word shocker instead of shock is slang.

As for colour vs color that's a stupid argument...American English evolved from British English...you guys have changed the original word. Colour is not pronounced cul or... and tube is not pronounced toob. Next you guys will be changing tool to tul..😅

At least we don’t add the letter R onto random words.

Did Santer Claus visit you last night?
