The sentence is correct, but I've never heard of 'set nouns', so I cannot answer the question (if you were in fact looking for an answer).

	Jackson6612  +  415138 Thu, 06 Sep 07 06:15 PM Hi Philip, I wasn't looking for an answer. There is another question. I used single quotation marks in: Do you call 'compound nouns' set nouns in AmE? Would there have been any problem if I have used double quotation marks as in the following sentence? Do you call ''compound nouns'' set nouns in AmE? Jackson6612 Nouns, Quotation Marks

Do you call ''compound nouns'' set nouns in AmE? No problem in my book.  I used them almost interchangeably, unless I am actually quoting someone. Philip Nouns, Quotation Marks, Quoting
