- There is a widespread tendency to use the formsavings as a singular, as reflected in compounds such assavings account and savings bond ( note by contrast that one would not form compounds likeinvestments account, using an unambiguous plural). But the phrasea savings, though increasingly common, remains unacceptable to 57 percent of the Usage Panel;a saving is the only uncontroversial form. 有将savings 作为单数使用的普及的趋势, 如复合词savings account(储蓄帐户) 和 savings bond(储蓄债券) ( 注意到相比较之下,用并非模棱两可的复数形式是不能组成如investments account 的复合词的)。 但是短语a savings 虽然使用得日渐广泛, 但词语用法小组57%的成员仍不能接受;a saving 仍是不引起争论的唯一形式
