prakash_miku SaysWords typified by herd, flock, crowd, jury, family, nation] when used in the singular may be followed by either a singular or a plural verb. When what is said applies to the group as a whole, a singular verb is used, as in my family is a large one and the jury was out for six hours. When what is being said applies to the individual members of the group, a plural verb is used, as in my family are early risers and the jury were unable to agree.
