Dear Teachers,
I’d like to know how to describe something that each of the individules in a goup has only one. For example, each person in a group has only one father, only one face, and only one nose.
Consider these sentences:
a)These are the 3 kids in this class whose fathers are soldiers.
b)These are the 3 kids in this class whose father is a soldier.
I don’t know if both a) and b) are correct. If yes, then I have a feeling that a) infers that those 3 kids are from different families, and b) infers the 3 kids are from the same family, ie they are siblings.
c)These six kids went to a carnival, each of [them/who/whom] got their [face/faces] painted.
d)These six kids went to a carnival, who got their [face/faces] painted.
e)Usually, clowns have [red noses/a red nose]. [/i]
What are the correct words to choose in c), d) and e)?
Thanks a lot.
