Can you explain to me how this sentence uses cakes instead of cake?

The fresh (cake cakes) tastes delicious

Singular:

The fresh cake tastes . . .

Plural:

The fresh cakes taste . . .

And for this sentence

The mice (eat eats) all the cheese.
How is it eat?

If it was singular would it be The mice eats all the cheese?

Mice is plural so it needs a plural verb -- eat.

The singular of mice is mouse. The mouse eats . . .

Taste

In the given sentence, the word "cake" is used in its plural form as "cakes". The reason for using the plural form is to indicate that there are multiple cakes. This usage suggests that there are more than one cake being referred to, and each cake is fresh and delicious.

To identify the usage of plural form in a sentence, you can look for indicators such as words like "many," "several," or "multiple" which imply a larger quantity. Additionally, subject-verb agreement can also help in determining whether a noun is plural or singular. In this case, the verb "tastes" is used instead of "taste" which indicates that the subject, "cakes," is plural.

Understanding grammar rules and applying them when analyzing a sentence can help in comprehending why a particular word form is used.
