It is most definitely correct in UK English to use the plural pronoun in situations where an American would use the singular. So whereas an American might say "Dire Straits is performing at RFK Stadium" a Brit would say "Dire Straits are performing at Wembley". I'm a little less certain about the personal vs. impersonal pronoun choices. But it seems to me if you are using the plural, that almost implies you'd choose the personal pronoun -- if the sentence required one. Steve |

To say "Dire Straits are..." is odd, because they are a group and the name is a proper name, so it seems natural to say, "Dire Straits is performing."

My general impression is that until a decade or so ago, Americans referred to musical ensembles as a singular, unless there was a UK (or possibly, Commonwealth) tie-in. This has since become less universal and more Americans have just shifted to the British plural usage. Steve |

Peanuts are also high in fact and so I can't eat it on regular basis. I have decided to eat this particular bean/legume that was used back home by the natives. I forgot about it because if we used it at home, we bought the one already boiled - actually, it is steamed with a little water that was used to soak until thje bean sprouts. Our family used it by mixing it with thinlly sliced hallots (rinsed version to get the strong flavor out) in a little bit of oil with some salt. Sometimes, it was sautee fried with onion and tumric powder. It is eating with Naan bread; this way of eating Naan is unique and is a Burmese creation. I have tried sprouting that beans but I don't have the right steam pot and so it doesn't come out the way it was back home, soft and noie and still in oung shape, not soggy. I have heard some people boiling it in pressure cooker. the lady ust said to test by trial and error how much water to put. That didn't help me at all. I would have tried it though if my weight hing of the pressure cooker ddin't burn off when it slid into the gas stovetop area and melted the plastic tip of that metal piece. I do not know the name of that bean in English; it is availabe in Indian stores. > > Jill |

Get it people? Rude, rude, RUDE!! "WE" get it. You're the one that doesn't. You want "complete proteins" yet don't want to eat meat or other animal products. I gave you three ideas for non-animal proteins that are considered as close to complete as possible for non-animal sources. You won't eat nuts because they have too much fat, and grains because they have too many carbs and sugars. In addition to restricting yourself to foods that basically don't exist, you also want to restrict yourself to foods traditionally eaten during a western breakfast (i.e. meat, eggs, and cereals). If you don't want to eat meat, eggs and cereals for breakfast than you are going to have to eat "non-traditional" western foods for breakfast. Do YOU get it??!! Do you think we're all out here eating some secret mystery complete protein in our western breakfasts? You're not the only person out here that is hypoglycemic. I suggest you get rid of all the whacked out dietary ideas you were raised with in your behind-the-times non-western culture regarding cholesterol, fat, sugar and carbs and go see a registered dietician--at a real clinic--or better yet, a psychiatrist. You're a kook. Maybe even a hypochondriac. Were you even diagnosed by a real doctor or did you diagnose yourself? If you're so hypoglycemic that you need to eat steadfastly every two hours, then you need some serious medical help for your condition. I gave you honest, good suggestions in my first post to you. Don't you dare respond back to me like I'm the idiot you ungrateful wench. Jinx |

amandaF wrote: > > > I guess I should have mentioned that I meant "Complete protein and a > high content at that with the least amount of sugar". > It isn't necessary to eat complete proteins as a *single* dietary item. A combination of proteins that makes up to complete protein works just as well. The body just needs those amino acids daily rather than on a per-meal or hourly basis. Soy milk is rather dilute, so wouldn't help you as far as concentrated protein. Try tofu instead; it's mild flavoured and can be seasoned up any way you'd like. Non-fat unflavoured (so no sugar) yoghurt is also a good source of concentrated protein. Nuts and whole grains are common breakfast items in certain 'Western' cuisines, so try whole grain porridges (which do not need to be sweetened) with toasted nuts on top. Why do you need to eat a 'Western' breakfast anyway? Other food combinations might suit your hypoglycaemia much better. If your 'hypo' is that unstable, might be best to see your doctor again. It can have several causes, some more serious than others. |

" >>> The subject is "project", which is a collection of people. >>> This is what leads to "who say...". >"Project" is an "it" not a they or who. I bet they think of themselves as a they. Another example, in the U.S. you'd say, "Bank of America is in merger talks..." but in the U.K. you'd say "Barclays are in merger talks...", as in the following: http://www.prlog.org/10174314-atlas-...ger-talks.html If it can be construed as a collection of people, it's likely to be a plural subject in British usage. I do not know the exceptions or limitations on this but it's extremely common and I have seen no evidence that the more American usage would be considered correct in the U.K. And, I'm seeing some evidence of drift-over of the U.K. usage to the U.S. >Is Chelsea a place or a person? It's a football club, therefore a group of people, in this context. Steve |
