I have had a little confusion with the correct pronunciation for "scales"

As in - "She threw the bathroom scale (or scales?) at me?"

Any comments?

scales

[edit]

I miss the meaning of the expression "scales" in context of dermatology. Laco

I disagree with "plural only".

[edit]

See this Google N-gram. Sometime in the late 70s/early 80s, "bathroom scale" began to outpace "bathroom scales". 165.225.9.20 19:08, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
