just one other point which i overlooked was your criticism of my spelling! i was not aware of this other meaningful misdemeanour. could you please give me a few examples
For a start. The plural of podium is podia.
A corporate entity always takes a singular verb, as in 'an army
marches on
its feet'. So it is 'Williams/Ferrari/whatever
has' . . never '
have'.
I mentioned your punctuation, too. 'Hamiltons' is the plural of Hamilton. But 'hamiltons view . . .(as you wrote it)' obviously requires an apostrophe denoting the possessive form.
I did not mean to dwell on this topic. Though I am dismayed when non-native English speaking posters, such as Mehryar and Pablo, often express themselves far better in the English language.
