If I comment on something, I&amp;#39;m making comments. When someone gives their opinion, it is rare that they touch only on a single aspect of the topic being discussed. When a politician or government official issues a formal statement, that statement may be called a comment. If he does not wish to comment, he says &amp;quot;No comment&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;I have no comment on that&amp;quot;. Above are my comment s on your original post.

At first, I thought when a single person said something at one time, it was the singular &amp;#39;comment.&amp;#39; But I noticed that it was not necessarily so: I&amp;#39;ve seen some people saying &amp;#39;my comments&amp;#39;, not &amp;#39;my comment&amp;#39; for what he/she said at the time. So when should I use the singular &amp;#39;comment&amp;#39; and when the plural &amp;#39;comments&amp;#39;?</description></item></channel></rss>
