colour or colourS?
when i want to say:
' The thing I'm looking at in this picture is the colour or colours'? of course there's a lot of colours in that picture, but someone once told me when you it in singular form, you're talking about it as a concept.
another example: 'printing in colour or black and white'. Why the singular form?
I'm still confused about plural and singular.
pls help thanks you : )
