Information, advice, news, money, work, knowledge, flour, toast, water ont tous un point commun : ils
sont indénombrables (uncountable, indiqué par U dans les dictionnaires).
Ils sont suivis d'un verbe au singulier et ne sont jamais précédés de a / an / one. On utilise
plutôt des mots comme ∅, the, this, that, some…
Ex: Dinner's ready? Idiom This is good news!
Ils n'ont pas de forme au pluriel même quand ils se finissent par un -s.
