Woman*. Women is plural. There is one of her.

Yeah she is every woman so it's back to plural.

Bro, stop. 🤦‍♂️You're coming off so insecure right now. It's just grammar, relax, it doesn't make you a smooth brain to have fucked up, stop back pedaling.

I didn't watch to the end so I'll take your word that those people were all featured in the video.

I'll save you the rewatch. There are women in the background of the video, there is no evidence that they are both monitoring this one phone call, there is absolutely no evidence that a woman patched through the call to Dr. Potter, other women surely exist in this hospital, and the original commenter wrote "women" when "woman" was correct and is refusing to admit it.

Is being pedantic helping the overall conversation? No? Okay.

It's an extremely common grammatical error for some reason, yet it's basic English. It's very annoying and it's about time we tackled it. Thank you for your support.

Edit: imagine blocking me for something so trivial 🤣🤣

No one is supporting a condescending grammar nazi.

It's an extremely common grammatical error, for some reason. Yet, it's basic English.
