What about “two persons”? I have to say “two people”?
Yes, friend. You must say: Two people. Person is a singular word.
Here there’s a difference btw American English n British one,
“Two persons” is acceptable in British English.
Have a good 1!
I’ve found this: http://www.dailywritingtips.com/people-versus-persons/
hi there! When I was 18, I went to Miami Florida for vacation. When I was in the hotel with my cousin, I noticed that there was a sing about the pool’s rules. I don’t remember exactly what it said, what the thing is that instead of using the word people they used persons. With my cousin we weren’t sure if it was okay or was a grammar mistake.
Oh another thing, before watching the video I did the quiz and I scored 9 out of 10. My mistake was that I put fishes instead of fish. When I watched the video you said that fishes was allowed in some cases. I remember talking to a native speaker and I told her that bears eat fishes. Was that correct? Or Should I have said fish? I feel kind of embarrassed right now lol
nice quiz
People become smarter not watching the video and just take the Quiz.that’s they lost 1 mark , as I didn’t ..

Hi There,
Could you please do lesions on following topics/ topic that would cover the following matters?
1. Different between –
a. Alex worked in a company for 4 years (but he is no longer working in the company)
b. Alex had been working 4 years in a company (but he is no longer working in the company)
2. Different between – Need explanations.
a. Julian Assange urged Barak Obama to end “witch hunt” again his website, appearing in public Sunday –
i. Why we are not using On Sunday
ii. Can we write Julian Assange urged Barak Obama to end “witch hunt” again his website, appearing in public on Sunday
3. Which is the correct one & why?
a. Students who have question or
b. Students who has question –
4. Which are correct one & why?
a. Everyone have /Everyone has
b. No one have / No one has
c. Everybody have/ Everybody has
d. Everyone have / Everyone has
e. Dose everyone have ? / Is everyone have?
5. Writing Media’s heading / News heading – what rule they are following?
6. Confusing of using Passive voice – which one is correct & why?
a. Mentally disabled Pakistani girl arrested for blasphemy (from Toronto star news paper)
b. Mentally disable Pakistani girl (was / is / had been / has been) arrested for blasphemy
I would appreciate if you could do lessons to get clear on above confusions matter , it would be helpful for other viewers as well.
Thank You in advance,
“Students who have question” is correct because “who” isn’t the subject here. Just write it without “who” — “Students has” or “Students have”
Everyone, No one, Everybody, Everyone — all of these are singular.
Dose everyone have ? / Is everyone have?
If you use Do/does in question you have to put base verb — have. If you start question with “is” you have to add -ing at the end of the verb -having.
Passiv = be + pp. Passive voice is used mostly in
– simple present
– simple past
– simple future
– preset perfect.
Sometimes passive is used with continuous tenses — mostly in present continuous tense. This is my observation only. But in your example — “Mentally disable Pakistani girl was arrested for blasphemy”.

Hi Alex I have a question for you.I am a little curious on that matters. Please enlight me. For example: İf I have an apple I say normally I have an apple and İf I have more apples I say I have two or three apples.My question is : why Do we say three apples? I mean why do we add an (s) end of the apple word.I don’t understand this.Because the word three also does define it plural.Doesn’t it?
Dear Sir Alex,
I have been finding your lessons quite interesting and helpful. I teach English to my kinsmen and I enjoy doing it, just because I love this language. About plural nouns I got some questions: times ago I was reading Cambridge grammar of English and I had found that the word person has got two plural forms: people and persons. people form common use and persons for special use like v.i.p. eg. our parliament has got many persons and not people. How far is it true and consistent? email me via pemanzinga@yahoo.com.br
thanks Alex for your help with my english lessons
As always I*m grateful to you,Alex, for this useful lesson!
Thanks, Alex! I have been liking to learn the plural of the nouns!
stomach – stomachs
ox – oxen
louse – lice
die – dice
dwarf – dwarfs/dwarves
aircraft – aircraft
deer – deer
seasons – seasons
goose – geese
hypothesis – hypotheses
radius – radii
vertebra – vertebrae
phenomenon – phenomena
shelf – shelves
chief – chiefs
Hi, I´d like if are there more irregular plural nouns in english?
