Penggunaan “one of “

Penggunaan “one of “

Kata one of (salah satu dari) harus selalu diikuti kata benda jamak (dua atau lebih). Namun, kata one of itu sendiri mengandung makna tunggal. Misal :

1. One of the boys is my son. (bukan “are”)


2. One of those girls has very beautiful voice. (bukan “have”)


3. Do you know one of the children who often comes here ? (bukan “come”)


4. One of the students who broke the window pane was punished. (bukan “were”)
