    Note

    A plural that the soup's usual grammar resists. Pho is normally a mass noun (a bowl of pho, we had pho for lunch), so the -s form turns up only when servings or styles are being counted, as on a menu or in a taste test. The same spelling also serves as the plural of two unrelated abbreviations: partially hydrogenated oils and potentially hazardous objects.
