Subject-verb agreement for the internet age will have to wait for a while.
- madcaptenor 12y agoPerhaps the word "statistics" is singular, like "mathematics".
- mgkimsal 12y agoIt's something I've heard both ways. Whether it's correct in both cases ... I'm not sure. "I end up feeling like a statistic" is a singular form, for sure, but I often hear/read "statistics" referenced singularly as well.
