HELP ME SOLVE THIS CONFUSION : SOME

0 Can i use : SOME FURNITURE / SOME BOOK / SOME COMPUTER Because sometimes I see those sentences (and many more with SOME at the beginning) being used without an S at the end instead of SOME FURNITURES? / SOME BOOKS / SOME COMPUTERS with an S! 02br

0 Hello, HaffiezMike, 02br 02br 00Well, first, "furniture" is an uncountable, you can't have it with an "s". 02br 00"I saw some nice furniture at *** yesterday" = a few nice pieces of furniture. 02br 02br 00"I read it in some book" = I don't remember which one.

0 There's also the ironic use of 'some': 02br
02br
00"Would you believe it. I've just opened up Excel on my new pc, and entered =2+2, and it tells me it's 5!" 02br
00"Huh. Some computer..." 02br
