Are there any questions i should be asking Or who are planning to have their holidays soon? Is there any articles available on the subject
My instinct is that in the two questions above, it should be 'are' as the subjects of the sentences ( Who is planning to have their holidays soon Although the pattern of writing a word like option (s) is called paranthetic plurals, the word is both singular and plural
Which is correct in the following example The following staff are/is (?) absent today John doe jane doe bob doe Is it correct to say, the team that will be attending with me is listed below
Or should i say the team that will be attending with me are listed below I was just wondering, how can we differentiate are you done? and have you done?, and what is the appropriate way to use each? The words you cited are all forms of the verb “be”, which is also known as a copula or linking verb The term auxiliary verb applies to verbs, such as forms of be, have, and do, that conjoin with another verb to add syntactic or semantic information, such as grammatical aspects like the progressive aspect or perfective aspect
Thanks to the responses, they cleared it up nicely I noticed the subject title changed from it's original blank, blank, and i am/are… I am adding it back in as a comment, since the new header makes it impossible to find using a google search. Are collective nouns always plural, or are certain ones singular
The rest of the staff is or are The rest of my family is or are I've done a bit of re. They are planning to have holidays soon
