A question

I don't understand why is "advice" not countable,Does that mean we can't say advices
the sane for "work" Does that mean we can't say "works"
please tell me why??

Hello hayaalqasem,

Yes, that's correct: "advices" is not correct in standard English. "works" is possible when "work" is used in the sense of a creation (see the dictionary), but when it refers to different jobs, "works" is incorrect.

Like you, many learners find this aspect of English a bit strange, but that's the way that English has evolved. There may be some reason for this, but I'm not aware of it - I would suggest that you just accept this as something odd.

Best wishes,

Kirk
