quickinfo
The content noun does not determine agreement on the verb in a referential partitive construction.
readmore
The following sentences illustrate that the content noun does not determine agreement on the verb, neither in the bare partitive construction nor in the prepositional partitive construction:
Example 1
| a. | *Wêr binne it blik flikken? | ||||||||||||||
| where are.PL the tin.SG chocolate.drops | |||||||||||||||
| Where is the tin of chocolate drops? | |||||||||||||||
| b. | *It espeltsje bern laken | ||||||||||||||
| the group.SG children.PL laughed.PL | |||||||||||||||
| The group of children was laughing | |||||||||||||||
These facts remain unchanged in case a preposition is present between the two nouns:
Example 2
| a. | *Wêr binne it blik mei flikken? | ||||||||||||||
| where are.PL the tin.SG with chocolate.drops | |||||||||||||||
| Where is the tin of chocolate drops? | |||||||||||||||
| b. | *It espeltsje fan bern laken | ||||||||||||||
| the group.SG of children.PL laughed.PL | |||||||||||||||
| The group of children was laughing | |||||||||||||||
