kind Like sort, kind gives rise to a usage difficulty when it is followed by of with a plural noun and needs to be preceded by a demonstrative pronoun this, that, these, those. The grammatical sequences in use are as follows: ? I think these kind of comments are most unfair. ? This kind of component is much smaller and more reliable than a valve. ? Those are the kinds of assumptions (or assumption) being made. The first is sometimes rejected by language purists, but it is common especially in speech. Recommendation: to avoid difficulty, use this kind of + singular noun, or these kinds of + singular or plural noun. |
