Find the mistake and write the sentences correctly:
people are leaving in their thousands while going is good.
Will it be ;
the going
Thanks for your hint.Yes, you're correct. There is only one error ("their thousands" is correct) and you have spotted it!
Of course, there should be a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence, but I'm sure you knew that! :-D
That's the way we Brits say it.;-)That's what I was thinking - BE vs AE. In their thousands may be used in some places but I have never heard it.
That sure makes it a hard test question, then, since Americans would see "their" as a mistake as well!
What about "The crowd numbered in the thousands."
How would you say that?
