If I buy a computer mouse but want to buy more than one, what is the plural for that? mouses or mice? maybe something else?

or as Jerry would say "meesez"!

I would personally buy an optical mouse with a scroll wheel. Optical mice don't require as much cleaning as standard mice. I didn't think they still made the non-optical mice.

There is no singular, because it is a plural noun. It doesn't exist in the singular. It only refers to plural numbers of, for example, fish.

It would be "the public's viewpoint" -- as it is the viewpoint belonging to the public\n\nalthough "the public" refers to multiple people it isn't actually a plural\n\nyou use xxxxxxxs to make a word plural e.g. apple  --> some apples\n\nyou use xxxx's to indicate belonging. --> Rachel's apples (the apples beloning to Rachel)\n\nxxxxs' is same but when the word that owns ends in it's own "s"  ---> James' apples  (the apples beloning to James)\n\n\nP.S. Hands off my apples\n\nP.P.S. I just read below someone wants to plural "people" to "peoples" I would say that "people" is already the plural of "person" and does not need to become "peoples"

Both of the expressions you list could be used with the same meaning, though one of them might fit better than the other in a particular sentence, depending on what you want to emphasize.   The expression "attacks of bees" is perhaps a little less likely, except in certain special constructions.  (You might use it, for instance, if "bees" is the first in a list -- "The attacks of bees, red ants, mosquitoes and every other biting insect you can imagine made it a memorable picnic!")\n\nBut if you are actually trying to use the words you list (instead of just giving them as a general example of how to put the words together), I suspect the expression you ACTUALLY want is "Bee attacks".   With this kind of compound expression of two nouns the first noun is usually in the singular, not plural.

TU would be the correct one, because you are talking about one table(mesa). If the sentences was mesas, then you would use TUS.\nSINGULAR=TU  PLURAL=TUS

Ok, here's the breakdown... use\nce when it's masculine singular unless the next word begins with a vowel (to avoid putting two vowels in a row and making odd sounds the french use) cet\ncette is for all fem. singular (even if the next word begins with a vowel) \nand ces is for all plural whether masc. or fem.

It's timeouts.  The word is one word, not two - as in, timeout, not time out.  So hence, following English rules, the plural form would have the s at the end of the single word.  Plus, if you check out the closed captioning in football games, you'd hear (and read!) the announcers say timeouts several times in the closing minutes of each half.

It would be usual to say "equipment is".\n\nTheoretically we could say "equipments are" \nand the plural form is accepted in the Scrabble world.

Theses is plural. Sorry that you are wrong. Kiss and make-up. She may be wrong in the future, but don't count on it.

depending on subject matter and past tense or present tense...\n\nexample: One, two or three has better benefits than four, five, six.\n\n1,2 or 3 have gone to the store

Actually, octopi was never the correct plural for octopus.  People thought it was because many Latin nouns use "i" at the end to create a plural, but octopus was a Greek loan word.  So, neither octopi nor octopuses was actually the original way to pluralize octopus, but at least octopuses follows the typical English method of pluralization!\n\nThe plural of apparatus is apparatus (via Latin) or apparatuses (via English), because in Latin, apparatus is part of a set of nouns that does not use the "i" ending to make a plural. :)

I think the click is intentional, it makes people feel more connected to thier computer. But I'd buy a quiet mouse myself, if I found one.

With a mouse? May be she is a kind of a person who like to do things differently & she may be the one who doesnt like routine things to do. And may be she wants attention of people jus by doing a weird thing. See she got your attention & her frivilous act is in Yahoo Answers. :-)
