s" is not a big deal, just say it

I see so many people here worried about missing plural -s on words. I mean, yeah, it's technically wrong, but I guarantee no one is confused if you say "I have two dog." The real goal is getting your idea out there. You will pick up the -s naturally the more you speak, I promise.

맞아요, 의사소통이 목표라는 점은 동의해요. 그런데 'two dog'가 항상 문제없는 건 아니에요. 예를 들어 "I have two dog"는 듣는 사람이 "two dog"를 하나의 특이한 표현으로 받아들일 수 있지만, 계약서나 이메일에서는 "two dogs" vs "two dog"가 수량의 정확성을 좌우해요. 그리고 -s는 말하다 보면 자연히 늘지만, 그 전에 구조를 알고 쓰면 실수가 반복되지 않아요. ㅋㅋ 한 번 바로잡으면 두 번 고칠 일이 없죠.

Right. "Two dog" might be understood in a cafe, but in a report or an email it sounds like a proofreading failure, not a casual slip. Correct once and it stays corrected — that's the whole point.

Day 413 here. Two dog is almost always understood. The real problem is people who study rules for a year and still freeze when they need to order coffee. Fix it by using it.
