Re: mind or minds (continued) It will have to come down to whether you are talking about an individual's mind, a collective mind or multiple minds.
Which it is likely to be will generally be assumed from the context.
If somebody cannot make up their mind....
If the voters cannot make up their minds...
If the electorate cannot make up their minds/mind/its mind = there are various options here with a collective noun governing it.
My advice would be to consider your logic in your own writing, and not worry too much about what others have done. |
