What are the major ocean of world?

I'm not sure that I understand your grammatically incorrect question.What IS the major ocean in the world?What ARE the major oceanS of the world?As to the major ocean, being singular... it depends on:Size (Pacific)Usage (I'm not sure which one is used most... I would guess that it depends on the period of time.Just because it is potentially useful for one thing doesn't mean that the other oceans aren't useful for something else.As to the major oceans, being plural, Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic.
