Question

关于many a 的用法

many a boy and girl has the same mistake
这句中用has是否正确？请详解

Answer 1

has是正确的
many a 意思是很多，但后面要跟可数名词单数，是个固定搭配

Answer 2

many a后要与单数名词及单数谓语动词连用。

Answer 3

many a 后跟可数名词单数形式作主语时,后面的谓语也要用单数形式.many a 的含义是"一个接一个"可译为"许多"For example:Many a child goes to school on foot every day.

Answer 4

many a 不同于其他诸如a great many或plenty of的修饰词，谓语用复数形式。没有为什么，只是这样的用法，需要记忆。

Many a student is having breakfast。

就是这样， has 是对的

Answer 5

many
a+单数可数名词:形式上为单数，后面的谓语也要用单数形式;
但意义上为复数(意为许多)。比如
many
a
child
goes
to
school
on
foot
every
day.
