Number is usually an inflectional feature of nouns and other parts of speech (pronouns, adjectives, determiners, numerals, verbs) that mark agreement with nouns.

Sing: singular number

A singular expression denotes one person, animal or thing.

Examples

Plur: plural number

A plural expression denotes several persons, animals or things.
