Grammar usage

n. (noun)

The basic meaning of ear is "ear". It is a countable noun and is often used in the plural form.

Ear can also be used as "hearing, hearing; appreciation", especially refers to sensitive hearing in music or language, or the ability to distinguish sounds. It is always used in the singular form and generally cannot be used alone. A qualifying word must be added before it.

ear can also be used as the meaning of "listen; pay attention", always in the singular form, but the indefinite article can be added.

Ear can also refer to the "ear" of grains such as rice and wheat, which is a homonym of ear (ear). When ear is interpreted as "sui", it can be used as a unit word, followed by the phrase "of" to express quantity.
