Hi, Bubu I remember the "Peace Corps" existed in the times of J. F. Kennedy.

- F.
- Kennedy.
- I'm not sure the organisation still exists today, though.
- In any case, it is/was an American government organisation that sent volunteers, especially young people, with technical knowledge to 'help' developing countries.

Thank you Miriam
Your explanation was extremely helpful. I used to pronounce it "cops" but now i have learnt how to pronounce it correctly.
By the way, it was interesting to check it out with the dictionary. I found that corps can be both singular and plural. when it is singular it is pronounced as "core" and when it is plural it is pronounced as "coz". I am am sure you will
