I'm from Japan so my English is awkward. Sorry for that.
What's the difference between "the sky" and "the skies"?
Sometimes I found "skies" in writing like "under blue skies" but I can't figure out whey the writer used "skies." Why not "under a/the blue sky"?
Could somebody please teach me the difference, possibly with some examples?
