What is a parcel the collective noun for?

The collective noun for "parcel" is actually a bit tricky. There isn't a perfect singular word to describe a group of parcels, but here are some options depending on the context:

Formal:

* A consignment of parcels: This is the most formal option, often used in a business context.

* A shipment of parcels: This is similar to consignment, implying a larger, organized group of parcels being sent together.

Informal:

* A pile of parcels: This is a simple and straightforward way to describe a group of parcels, often used in a more casual setting.

* A stack of parcels: Similar to a pile, but suggesting they are arranged more neatly.

* A heap of parcels: This implies a less organized collection.

Other:

* A bundle of parcels: This works well if the parcels are tied together.

* A batch of parcels: This suggests a group of parcels that are processed or delivered together.

The best word to use depends on the specific situation and the desired level of formality.
