Both should be either singular or plural. <br /> <br />(PS: Please do not post in all capital letters.)WHAT RULE DID I BREAKhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/WhatRuleDidIBreak/jqlb/post.htmTue, 05 Oct 2004 03:22:10 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:49029Guest1http://www.englishforums.com/English/WhatRuleDidIBreak/jqlb/post.htmhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-49029.xmlTHIS IS THE SENTENCE.
