I am always confuse with the usage of "fish" and "fishes". As a student, we were taught that there is no plural form for the word "fish". Like the word 'furniture', it can be used for both singular and plural form of the word. However, when i become a teacher and reads more English materials, I find that "fishes" is often used as a plural form for 'fish'. When my students ask about this, i just don't know how to explain the different usage of the words. Has the rule change?![Oops! :oops: :oops:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
