話し or 話

[derick78b]

Hello.

While learning about new words and some particle I found 2 phrases.

誰もその話を知らない。

and

それはとてもいい話しだ。

I really would like to know if there's any difference between these two, please.


Thank you very much.

それはとてもいい話しだ。

This is incorrect. It should be それはとてもいい話だ。

When it is a noun, it must be written 話.
話し is verb, し is a conjugating part. i.e. 話す → 話します、話して、話しません、

それはいい話です。 (noun)
彼はいいことを話しました。 (verb)

Isn't that an error that is common even among native speakers?

I think it's an error, 話 means story but if you add su behind the kanji character, it becomes verb
