Problems with Noun - countability
Hello,
I have another quick question!
Does the word outcome follow a singular form or a plural form?
The example sentence: The outcome of these two cases...
It seems to me that there is one outcome from one case and another outcome from the other. So shouldn't the sentence be read as "The outcomes of these two cases...?Should I have said there are instead of there is?Another thing! The outcome of these two cases is the same... I am so confused. If the result of a case is the same as that of the other, one uses the singular? whereas if two results are different, one uses the plural?
