1. so important a boy

2. so important boy

3. so important boys


Hi guys!

I think only sentence 1 in grammatical because 2 and 3 have no modifiers before boy(s).


so,

4. so good a girl

5. so many good girls

6. so much good water


the 4, 5 and 6 are all grammatical - I think.


Am I right? :oops:

None of your examples are sentences.

4. so good a girl

As always, posting random phrases of four words really means nothing. Please try to put all of your examples in a full sentence and then we can comment.
