Plural nouns deserve plural indicatives, b'god!

[Stout chap]

The team is going to win. No! The team are going to win. You follow? The team aren't one entity, because then they'd be an it, b'god!

 

[Pyper]

Although "the team" is a plural entity, it is a singular noun and therefore deserves a singular indicative.

 

[perks]

What pyper said.

 

[Stout chap]

I hadn't thought of that. What about "Those chaps over there", then, eh? Is those chaps over there fishing? I think not, b'god!

 

[seXieleXie]

dude, you're only talking about one team.

 

[Pyper]

lexie, you're softer than me? You sound like an advertisement for toilet paper, lol.

Chaps is plural, sugah.

I think you need a refresher on Nouns, not on subject/verb agreement.

i'm cooler than you...

 

[Stout chap]

Yes, but there are several chaps in the team, you follow? Just as there are several chaps and gels in the Government, b'god! The government are a silly bunch, it has to be said. Some of 'em invited me round to tea in '32, you follow? They make atrocious puddings!

 

[Pyper]

i'm cooler than you...

Entonces, serás más chula, más guay, o más chachi que mí.

Pero, yo soy la más mona.

just because there are pennies in a jar doesn't make the jar plural. fuck the politics.

 

[Stout chap]

I had a penny, I called it Mimsy, you follow? Lost it down the back of the sofa, b'god!

 

[seXieleXie]

ay, chica, yo no hablo el español de España y entonces, soy más suave

 

[Stout chap]

As they say in Sweden, Eh?

 

[perks]

Qué un imbécil<not the mujers>

 

[Stout chap]

Ah, I see. My good chum Cecil was a bit cuckoo in the head, you follow? Didn't match up to our man Basil, at all.

 

[kotori]

this is one of the differences between american and british english. don't argue, you're both right. depending on which side of the ocean you stand on.

 

[Stout chap]

Is it indeed? Gosh! Well, I must be on the lower side, b'god!

 

[Stout chap]

Of course, I don't stand on this side of the atlantic at all. I have to sit; low headroom and all that, you follow?
