This word is most often used in the plural form (classmates) when referring to the whole group. The singular form (classmate) is used when talking about one specific person in the group.

常見錯誤

❌my classmate' (when meaning the whole group).
✅my classmates
💡use the plural form when referring to more than one person in your class.
❌My classmates is nice.
✅My classmates are nice.
💡classmates is plural, so it needs a plural verb.
