Group is 'n versamelnaam. Is en are is albei reg na gelang daarvan of jy group as 'n enkel ding sien of as bestaande uit 'n klomp enkelinge. In jou teks kom die meervoud baie sterk deur. Kas

Ek moet met Kas saamstem, maar ek hou nog steeds nie van die resultaat nie. Dit herinner my aan die vraag of “Elliott [die verhuisingsfirma] is amazing” of “Elliott are amazing” korrek is.

The group, comprising people from common backgrounds and with shared experiences, meets to share their insights, attitudes, beliefs and views on a specific topic.

Die Amerikaners is dol daaroor (hulle noem dit die Harvard-komma), maar die Britte (wat dit die Oxford-komma noem) is nie: “Strangely enough, while the comma is so named after the Oxford University Press, which requires it in its style guidelines, it’s not exactly popular in Britain.

Daar is ook nog Fowler se kommentaaroor die getal van die woord ‘number’: As number deur ‘a’ voorafgegaan word, is ‘number’ meervoud, en as dit deur ‘the’ voorafgegaan word, is dit enkelvoud. Dit gaan oor waar die klem val. Dieselfde sal geld vir ‘group’. Kas ? Sent from for Windows ?

Akademia is lief vir die Oxford (of Harvard ;-) ) komma, omdat dit dubbelsinnigheid wegneem (soms). Waar klaarheid en duidelikheid belangrik is en terselfdertyd bondigheid, kan dit baie help.
Jammer, ons is nou van die punt af, maar ek het nie te lank terug nie my eie tesis moes opskryf en het maar gesukkel met die akademiese Engelse taal (veral die voorkeur vir die lydende vorm).

Daardie re?l is m.i. heel logies, en nie ’n geval van klem nie. ? A number of / some / a few / many / several is almal onbepaalde telwoorde/telfrases, en die onderwerp is die daaropvolgende s. nw., wat meervoud sal wees (bv. cars were damaged). ? In “The number of …” is die onderwerp die woord “number”, wat enkelvoud is; dus “…has risen sharply recently”. ?

Ek dink dis die eintlike kern van die saak – of die komma begrip van die stelling bevorder of nie. Dit mistasting is om die gebruik (al dan nie) te verabsoluteer. ?

Subject: Re: [ZaLang] English grammar help needed? Akademia is lief vir die Oxford (of Harvard ;-) ) komma, omdat dit dubbelsinnigheid wegneem (soms). Waar klaarheid en duidelikheid belangrik is en terselfdertyd bondigheid, kan dit baie help.
Jammer, ons is nou van die punt af, maar ek het nie te lank terug nie my eie tesis moes opskryf en het maar gesukkel met die akademiese Engelse taal (veral die voorkeur vir die lydende vorm).
Groete

In ‘the number...’ is die onderwerp ook die eersvolgende s.nw., wat meervoud sal wees. Die verskil bly dus klem. ? Sent from for Windows ?

SA??? GMT +2 ? ? ? ? As mens gewoond is aan Germaanse tale, waar sulke diskordansies nie voorkom nie, sluk mens maar swaar aan die Engelse gewoonte om na die interpretasie van versamelname te kyk ipv die grammatikale vorm. ?
