Разбор предложений
Ниже разберем предложения в которых могли возникнуть вопросы :
- My family is big. Мы используем is потому, что family собирательное существительное и мы рассматриваем семью как одно целое. В случае если мы рассматриваем каждого члена семьи будет так : All of his family are doctors ( Все в его семье доктора).
