 Re: Adding -s
Are these correct? What do these mean?
1. Why don't you guys hold hands. (Why is 'hands' plural? Don't you hold 'a hand'?)
2. Why don't you guys hold hand.
3. Why don't you guys hold hands?
4. Why don't you guys hold hand?
What's the difference in meaing between the statement (#1) and the question (#3)? Does the statement mean that one is telling them to hold hands? And does the question mean that one is asking about why they are not holding hands?
