Hello everyone! I have a question about English.
If I am talking to an audience of many people, which one is acceptable?
"Raise your hand"
"Raise your hands"
If I said "hands", would they raise their two hands?
-------------
Another example:
"They study at a university"
"They study at universities"
If they study at different universities, is only the second sentence acceptable? Can I use the first one?

“Raise your hand” sounds more natural, neither is weird.
I would say “They study at different universities”. The first sentence implies they study at the same one.
