Spring brings with it signs of renewal that make itself/themselves known in a thousand ways.
Spring brings with it sign of renewal that makes itself/themselves known in a thousand ways.
- Which one is correct at the bold part?
- Are the sentences correct?
‘Themselves’ is correct here because it relates to ‘signs’ and this is plural.
The second sentence using the singular form should be
Spring brings with it a sign of renewal that makes itself known in a thousand ways.
Spring brings with its a sign of renewal that makes itself known in a thousand ways.
Is there any problem now?
Yes. ‘its’ is incorrect. You need ‘it’ there. (Spring brings with itself)
Spring brings with it a sign of renewal…
just as I wrote above.
