Bonjour Hela,
Navr? de contredire papy84, mais "news", bien qu'il s'accorde toujours au singulier en Anglais, se traduit bien souvent par un pluriel ... puisqu'en Anglais, c'est de l'ind?nombrable. On ne peut d'ailleurs pas dire "a news". "Les nouvelles sont bonnes" => "The news is good". Si on veut sp?cifier qu'il s'agit d'une nouvelle et une seule, on dira "a piece of news", ou "an item of news".
