Sam bought a bunches/a bunch of grapes from the store.
So, which will be the answer? |
| a bunch of grapes from the store. |
"a bunch" is the answer
There is only one bunch not several. Its not relevant that it entails many grapes.
Its also "the army moves forward", though it entails many units. |
| Really? My teacher said, it's bunches. the question is from OTI 1(2nd exam of the year). So, this means i got 1 bonus mark? =D |
| Omg, the proficiency of our English teachers is worse than I thought. -_-" |
-.-" at least i got my marks.
Another question, is it true, food cannot be put the "S"? like foods? |
BTW, what can we put innfront if we want to say a singel letter, like
a/an/the "S"? |
