Can be found easily on Reddit etc. CFI shouldn't matter for such a silly situation, where it's an everyday common plural and the main noun sense is attestable. Equinox ◑ 23:28, 31 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
- I checked a bit and I found people using skill issues as a synonym of the singular (i.e. "my skill issues" = "my skill issue"). A true plural would be referring to multiple people, each with their own "skill issue". Ioaxxere (talk) 00:05, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
- @Ioaxxere: This makes no sense to me. One cat, two cats, whether they belong to a single person or to two (or more) people. Equinox ◑ 02:11, 12 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
- That analogy doesn't work in this case. Someone can have two cats, but you can't have two "lacks of skill". Therefore the only possible true plurals are multiple people lacking skill or (possibly) someone lacking two different skills. Anything other than that has to be just skill + issues rather than the plural of skill issue (“a lack of skill”). Ioaxxere (talk) 02:30, 12 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
- You are not making sense. I can say to one person "you have a real issue with your father, don't you?" or "you have daddy issues". Same deal. Your "lacks" example is irrelevant since the head of the NP here is "issue", not "lack". Please seek more opinions from Tea Room etc. I am sure you are wrong. Equinox ◑ 02:31, 12 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
