0 Guest, 02br 02br 00I'm not sure but i would use WALLS in your sentences since it is a known fact that a room can't be a ROOM without four walls. Heard of "Walls have ears"?? Based on the saying.

0 Yes, a room usually has 4 wallS (it is a countable). On the other hand, if the room is circular, I guess there is only one wall, a room with 2 walls doesn't exist, unless it has the shape of a D. From there, I'd say a room can have as many walls as the architect wishes (octogonal room etc...) 0-

0WALL is a count noun.05000 I am sure of it. It is definitely countable. Examples of nouns that can't be counted (MASS NOUNS) are rice, sugar, salt. This makes perfect sense, not unless you want to spend time counting these things...051010id511id4
