I'm not convinced yet of "countable nouns".
I mean, if a native speaker says: "I like strawberry" (as I've heard sometimes), should I consider that his/her English is not correct? Can I accept that?
Which is the correct way: "I have a doubt" or "I have some doubt".
Watermelon can be C or U. What's the difference?
