collective nounssss woooo
Post Body
why are they so cool? do they occur in other languages, or are they an english phenomenon? is there a collective noun for collective nouns, or is that just a paradox?
and, perhaps most importantly, which of these obscure collective nouns is the superior collective noun:
- a lechery of priests
- a load of diapers
- a panel of carpenters
- a handful of gynecologists
- a hotbed of swingers
- a HANDFUL of gynecologists
TIA!!
