So, how good is your grammar?

[Eddie Teach]

No, on that one it was pride that is abstract and collective because of the two different meanings.

  Oh, right.  Sneaky.

The picture of a polar bear right underneath got my mind on the right track. Otherwise, I might have missed it.

11/14.  I'm in Tim's corner

Same score!

You mean "pride"?  That's one of the two I got wrong.  I'll cop to being wrong on the prepositional phrase one, but "pride" is not a fucking (gerund ) collective noun.

That's not a gerund, that's an adjective. Your misunderstanding of what a gerund is is a gerund.

14/14. English grammar seems to be less complex than German or French grammar.

Cross I'll have to bear I guess.
