    Note

    A plural that only one meaning of the word readily takes. Insurance is usually a mass noun: the protection itself, the industry that sells it, or a figurative hedge against bad luck. None of those normally count. The countable meaning is the individual policy, so the plural names separate policies or products. When the mass meaning is intended, "kinds of insurance" is the natural phrasing.
