1 -the team is o the team are?-
Nota d'usoI sostantivi come team 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: The team is now complete, ora la squadra è al completo. Se invece si pensa alle singole persone che fanno cose diverse all'interno del gruppo, si sceglie il plurale: The team are playing well at the moment, in questo momento la squadra sta giocando bene. In ambito sportivo, in inglese britannico i nomi delle squadre sono quasi sempre seguiti dal verbo al plurale: Manchester United are winning one nil, il Manchester United sta vincendo uno a zero. In inglese americano, invece, si preferisce il verbo al singolare, a meno che il nome della squadra non sia un plurale: The Lakers are winning by two points, i Lakers stanno vincendo per due punti.
