How to Say “News” in Plural

By Hugh Zachary • Updated October 6, 2026

news

"News" is already plural in form, and it does not change: news. It takes a singular verb.

Meaning: new information about recent events (noun)

How do you pronounce it?

news is pronounced /njuːz/.

What mistakes should you avoid?

news looks plural but is uncountable and takes a singular verb: the news is. To count it, say pieces of news or news stories.

Did you know?

English treats words like advice, information and furniture as uncountable, so they have no plural. In many other languages the same words are countable.

Examples in context

The news is good.
The singular sentence is the same.
I heard two pieces of news today.
Singular: I heard a piece of news today.
