the plural of sheep is sheeps

>>287974363According to professional translators who are paid for their skills in English this is, in fact, correct.
Japanese doesn't add an s to the end of a word to signify plural, but that's neither here nor there as only originalfags know that the real reason anons call out people using the word "animes" is because it is intrinsically tied with low quality posts such as "Hey guiz, can you recommend me some animes?"
The idea that we can't pluralize a word in the english way because the source language doesn't indicate plurality is stupid. Words don't have rights. They aren't IP. We can take and do with them as we please. Fortunately the Japanese aren't, by and large, a people looking to be offended by trivialities, so they don't even mind. No nips are out there wagging their fingers that "tempura" is misspelled or that it ought to be "tyfoo."

>>287973981English is a gay whore language that steals its vocabulary from other languages, and effectively has no consistent grammar rules, since there's always some faggot exception from some other language we stole vocab/grammar from. Because of that, I don't give a fuck about language "rules" for English, and the only way I would care is if we cut out all the faggot shit loan words and created a consistent set of language rules to make for a clean, intuitive language. Obviously that will never happen, so I will never give a shit about the language/grammar rules of English.
