      Some languages also consider different numbers in different way. I have one ball, two balls, and zero balls. Zero might not be plural like in English. Also, some language have a dual distinction that changes thing when there are two of something (not just singular and plural, but singular, dual, and plural).

        English has inconsistent plurals too, one sheep, two sheep, zero sheep, one goose, two geese,…
