Mensagem: 

Frequently I read in newspapers, computer magazines, and in some website; words like "hardware", "software" in the plural. I can not agree and never found any matter in my search which confirm that these words has plural with "s".

 

Today I read in a respectable website another strange construction: "coffes breaks". My GOD!

 

Could someone comment about?

 

Happy New Year for all.

 

Jorge
