Much ability
Generally speaking, what's the difference between 'ability' and 'abilities' in meaning?
If not general, are they both correct? -He has operated with so much ability that he has defeated me. -He has operated with so many abilities that he has defeated me. What would be the difference in meaning? |

When used in the plural, we consider that skills or talents are the focus instead of overall competence or power.

So you agree both are grammatically correct? |
