1. It sounds right to my ear/ears.
2. It sounds right to our ear/ears.

Which words should I use?

Many thanks.

In the first instance you can use either "ear" or "ears". (Maybe you only heard it with only one ear. Smile)

In the second example, it should be plural -- ears. (More than one person must have more than one ear. Smile)
