Yeah, we have a school of fishes and a shoal of fishes depending on the social behaviour of the fish. For instance; If the group of fish came together for a social reason, it is known as a Shoal of fishes. But when they are swimming in the same direction in a well coordinated manner; it is called A school of fishes.

That is what you get when you watch foreign movies
The knowledge, the use of language, their idiomatic expressions and their sense of humour is second to non
You can't get it in nollywood

Nitrogen gas destroy alloys- I was aware about that in terminator 2
Berryllium rod causes a reaction with a plutonium- got to know that in mission impossible (the fall out)

That is why i keep on watching foreign movies
My little ones at home dare not watch nollywood.
