Reserve, Pass Judgement
Most dictionaries say that the usages of 'judgement' allow these:
- "to pass judgement on"
"- to reserve judgement on"
where 'judgement' is uncountable. But google searches also return these:
- "to pass judgements on"
- "to reserve judgements on"
where 'judgement' is countable.
So, should 'judgement' be uncountable or countable when used with 'pass' or 'reserve'?
- "to pass judgement on"
"- to reserve judgement on"
where 'judgement' is uncountable. But google searches also return these:
- "to pass judgements on"
- "to reserve judgements on"
where 'judgement' is countable.
So, should 'judgement' be uncountable or countable when used with 'pass' or 'reserve'?

Mostly uncountable.
It's hard to come up with reasonable contexts for the plural usage.
