Hi Teacher,

Is there any mistake from the below sentence ?

Do you have any cubicle furniture that has parts that needs to be repaired? 

 

Thanks,

Vincent

Hi Vincent,

'Parts' is a plural word so you need to say 'need' as the verb form.

'Do you have any cubicle furniture that has parts that need to be repaired?'

Your sentence is also not in good style. Why don't you just say

 'Do you have any cubicle furniture that needs to be repaired?'

Best wishes,

Clive
