Note
This plural exists only because the base noun sometimes counts. In its core sense, the quality of character that tells the wise from the unwise, wisdom takes no plural at all. The plural belongs to the countable uses: a single piece of wise advice, or one way of applying knowledge set beside another. For general good judgment, keep the singular. Use this form when you are comparing separate bodies of insight.
