uktous  +  963028 Fri, 06 Nov 09 04:03 AM hi, The following sentence is one of the sentence from the email of an employer. Thank you for your interest in our 2010 Entry vacancy. Clearly, there are more than 1 vacancy, but why the employer did not write "vacancies"? uktous Joined on Mon, Oct 26 2009 Junior Member 99 Business, Sentences, Careers

	Clive  +  963034 Fri, 06 Nov 09 04:18 AM Hi,   Perhaps the employer was simply a little careless, or possibly his English is not great.   The usual adjective is 'entry-level'.   Best wishes, Clive Clive Joined on Thu, Oct 28 2004 Canada Veteran Member 29,580 El tango argentino es un pensamiento triste que se puede bailar (The tango argentino is a sad thought which can be danced) Enrique Santos Discépolo Careers

	Clive  +  963430 Fri, 06 Nov 09 02:16 PM Hi,   I am interested in one of your entry-level vacancies.   But he already knows that, doesn't he? Why say it again?   Clive Clive

	uktous  +  963659 Fri, 06 Nov 09 08:06 PM because i might need to write a follow up letter, so i want to decide whether I should say "vacancy or vacancies". thanks, clive uktous
