fish

Definition

A fish is an animal that lives in water and usually has scales and fins. The word can also mean the meat from these animals that people eat.

Usage & Nuances

'Fish' is both singular and plural; do not add 'es' for the plural (one fish, two fish). In food contexts, 'fish' means the meat, not just the animal. In Spanish, 'pez' means the animal alive, while 'pescado' is for food.
