Plurals

Does the word "tax" have a plural form?

Is it:

"I file tax for a living."

or

"I file taxes for a living."

I believe the second one is correct, but sometime I see "tax" as an activity or area of activity.

Does the word "tax" have a plural form? Yes, taxes. 'Taxes' here really means tax forms (often called 'tax return s' where I live).

  • Does the word "tax" have a plural form?
  • Yes, taxes.
  • 'Taxes' here really means tax forms (often called 'tax return s' where I live).
  • 'File' means 'submit', which is a simple task Instead of your sentence, I'd say "I prepare and file people's tax returns for a living'.
