such as I am, like me

[e2e4]

At last I thanked BoBK's first post under this topic due to the sentence Can I use either in either case?
But I still think that theword twos, I've used, has no other form but the one that includes s.

e2e4, there's an error in the following sentence:

... is it possible to exchange such as and like in the twos?

My apologies for not picking up on it (i.e., seeing it) earlier.

... in the two.
... in the two sentences.

By the way, twos is word; e.g., terrible twos as in talking about toddlers; when counting e.g., a card game: twos and threes, and fours, and fives; .

Try:

Look at these guys. The two of them are shocked. Indeed, they are.

(Say: dos amigos (Spanish))

[e2e4]

After all I have been thinking about twos a bit more.

The word twos meant both (such as, and like), in such kind of pair, RonBee. In my mother tongue
two= 2 = dva,
but dvojka means a pair of two people without any feelings about the each of them in the pair.

The similar form in English could be the form twos.

Example
Look at them(these guys). (These) The twos are shocked. Indeed, they are. At last I found the word these shouldn't be in use with the word twos.

twos amigos

Almost exactly like that.
(such as, like) an ansamble, discrete pair,a pair if is it about people
but not a couple

I am going to store this one for later use. There will be no chance to say you didn't once say it.
Actually I am going to store threes (three of the setnences) which will be enough to prove you have stood by the way that all was completelly wrong with my use of the word (form) twos.

... in the two sentences. Exactly! the two words contracted into twos. In this case twos is a form

like
This is > Tis
By the way> Btw
YAH > Yes I have

etc.
Comparing to these the form twos is more regular.
But if the contraction hasn't been developed in the US it worth no any penny.

By the way, twos is word;(What wasn't seen on CNN it hadn't happened!)

e.g.,terrible twos as in talking about toddlers; when counting e.g., a card game: twos and threes, and fours, and fives; .
I've already given better example, 'But people were coming in twos only', but thank you for your one.
What has to be noted is that twos isn't a word only but could be a form as well!

=RonBee;319913]Try:

Look at these guys. The two of them are shocked. Indeed, they are. This means that there were several guys two of which were shocked. So it doesn't work for such the case.
there were only two guys (twos, contraction again) who were shocked

(Say: dos amigos (Spanish))
this time in particular
twos=byee


no expressed feelings with the word twos

Look at those two guys and
Look at these two guysThe words, "these" and "those", separatelly carries different feelings about the guysbut twos carries no feelings. ( , )
In this case twos is a word.

The form could be a part of informal English of course.
Seems as if I like to do btw analysis.
Anyway it's nice to having a word with you.
I hardly expect you agree.


P.S.

1)
We needed help so much.
But people were coming in twos only.
Looking at the twos that were coming we were hopeless.
The twos or threes would help us?!
No way!
Suddenly a big group of people appeared and we at least took breath.

2)
I expected a lot of sentences from them but they were writing in twos (two setnences) or threes (three sentences) each of them and all the time.

3)
I wrote not only twos or threes but a lot.

And don't tell me this is the wrong way!

I don't quite understand what it is you are trying to say.

Good luck with re-inventing English.
