Note
A plain -s plural that counts different things depending on where it is used. In Australia, Canada, India and the US, kindergartens are usually institutions, as in several kindergartens across a district, or the grade before first grade as taught in many schools. In the Philippines the word covers the two levels between nursery and prep, so a single kindergarten there already spans two years.
