\define[1]\thisismylist{
This list has n items.
\startitemize #1\stopitemize
}

\thisismylist{\item cat\item dog\item tree
}
How can I make n display three, as there are three items?
"This list has 3 items:
1. cat2. dog3. tree
I will use this as a means to check if the description before a list needs a
plural or not:

- Do you think cats should be banned from university dormitories?- Should
public schools provide free breakfast?
And that way, if there is only one prompt, it changes the instructions to be:
Read the prompt below:
- Do you think cats should be banned from university dormitories?
