Note
A plural that does two different jobs. When it counts minds, it means each person's image-making faculty taken separately, as in the imaginations of readers or nervous imaginations. When it counts products, it means things imagined, such as fancies and mental pictures, and it often leans toward false images or fantasizing. The singular can be countable or uncountable, but the plural always counts.
