Hello teachers,
I'm studying English grammar from a book from an English speaking country.
I ran into two mysteries during my study.
1.
Even fish sleep at night. (from the book)
This sentence is correct? or just an error of the book?
I think it should be either 'Even fishes sleep at night.' or 'Even fish sleeps at night.'.
2.
A pig is an intelligent animal. (from the book)
I think 'The pig is an intelligent animal.' is more accurate.
Am I wrong?
Please let me know.
Thank you.
