If you borrow a noun from another language, a word that hasn't already become common usage in English (like "pizza"), and you want to make it plural, do you use that language's plural form or the English?

@levisan if your speaking English, any English speaker can determine intent from context if you attempt to use English conventions.

For example "your" versus "you're"

Only a choad would think it's needed to correct the usage, if you already understood the intent.

"Give me two pizzas, please "

Or not, whatever flips your switch. 🙂

@CattleBaron So… what flips your switch? Which do you prefer in your on speech?

@levisan I prefer extra volume when listening, too many guns and loud music in my history.

When talking, it varies by circumstance.
