  • From the point of view of each - or is it points of view?
    by thisisit at 16:49 on 06 September 2013
    'From the point of view of each of the four members of X family'.

    Is EACH the subject - ie singular - so it is 'point of view -not 'points' ?


    Feeling a bit Friday feeling, bit sluggish (lazy!)so just checking if anyone knows?

    I would have thought so, it seems like an implied "one".
    EG:
    'From the point of view of each one of the four members of X family.'

    As opposed to:
    'From the points of view of the family members.'

    Thanks for answering. Yes, I think it must be that each - one - governs this. Not the 'four' members.

    Yes, I'd agree. Otherwise it seems to imply that each family member has more than one POV. (Multiple personality disorder anyone? )
