I helped a friend of mine with his essay. He told me that he only had one mistake, here is the excerpt:
"... because most accidents happen during the winter..."
His teacher added "of":
"... because most of accidents happen during the winter..."
I don't know if that's possible. If it is, it cannot be very common.
I don't think I have ever heard it without "the":
"... because most of the accidents happen during the winter..."
I know that the construction "most of + noun" is possible, but is it correct in this particular context?
