答
这个词本身就是集合名词；可参看下列几个定义：
1. a number of individuals assembled or associated together; group of people.
2. a guest or guests: [ We're having company for dinner.]
3. an assemblage of persons for social purposes.
4. companionship; fellowship; association: [ I always enjoy her company.]
5. one's usual companions: [ I don't like the company he keeps.]
答
用错了吧。
答
company作为伙伴讲时,是一个不可数名词,没有复数.
答
company 在此就应该用复数companies
e.g .:We are good friends .中的firends一样用复数
