3 -the class is o the class are?-
Nota d'usoI sostantivi come class nel senso di “classe” (scolastica) sono chiamati collettivi perché indicano un gruppo di persone. In inglese possono essere seguiti dal verbo al singolare o al plurale, a seconda del contesto e di ciò che vuole esprimere chi parla. In generale, se si pensa al sostantivo in modo impersonale, si sceglie il singolare: This is a very good class, questa è una classe molto buona. Se invece si pensa alle singole persone che fanno cose diverse all'interno del gruppo, si sceglie il plurale: The class are being very disruptive today, oggi la classe disturba molto. Si noti che quando il verbo è al singolare, un'eventuale proposizione relativa sarà introdotta da which o that, mentre se il verbo è al plurale, poiché si pensa alle persone, si ricorre a who.English-Italian dictionary > -the class is o the class are?-
