1 -the crowd is o the crowd are?-
Nota d'usoI sostantivi come crowd 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: There's a big crowd here today, oggi c'è una grande folla qui. Se invece si pensa alle singole persone che fanno cose diverse all'interno del gruppo, si sceglie il plurale: The crowd, who gathered here yesterday, have been very quiet today, la folla, che si è riunita qui ieri, oggi è stata molto tranquilla. 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 crowd is o the crowd are?-
