idioms - 'What a big cheeks'? or 'What big cheeks'?


My brother just got his wisdom teeth extracted, and his cheeks are really big now. So cute.


I want to express my feeling by saying "What a big cheeks!" But I feel weird about this sentence: Because I am saying "cheeks" I should not use "a", but if I say "What big cheeks!" it feels even more weird…


Any suggestions?



Answer





What big cheeks!



This is correct.


Your reasoning is also correct: cheeks is plural so you don't use the indefinite article a.
