Comment:
The definite article has a number distinction, such that definite plural nouns are preceded by the plural definite article, as in the above example. Indefinite plurals have no article. Bare nouns can thus have a plural interpretation, and, due to variable singular article omission, a definite or indefinite signular interpretation.
