Yes, I have 2 bags.
Yes I have 2 pieces of luggage.
Yes I have 2 suitcases.
Yes I have luggage.
bags and suitcases are countable so you can use a number directly in front of them.
Baggage/luggage isn �t so you will need to use �pieces � if you want to indicate how many.
ps. I appreciate you wanting to learn English (read your profile), and being teachers, we like to help but maybe it is possible to ask several questions in one post, rather than starting a new post for each question?
That way you do not push other posts from the forum. The site is after all meant for English teachers, and it is a shame when their posts disappear too quickly, thanks. |
