BROMINE is an uncountable mass noun with no [count noun] usages given, because it’s the chemical element – whereas carbon copies or carbon pieces can be called carbons – so Apterous excludes bromines x as well (so to help you, heliums x is invalid) Outflares is not in and troweled is the American spelling of TROWELLED like traveled and signaled. Hope this is useful.
