On verbal concord with collective nouns

On verbal concord with collective nouns in British English I am very grateful to Susan Reed for generously discussing the collectives issue and commenting on the text. I owe deepest thanks to Tine de Cat, for helping me with the statistical interpretation of the data. I would also like to thank the two anonymous referees, for their critical observations and suggestions for improvement. One of the referees guided me to Levins doctoral dissertation (2001), Agreement with collective nouns in English, of whose existence I was unaware while writing my article. Ample references have been included to this impressive study in the revised version of the text. I am grateful to Chad Langford and Frank Joosten for casting a critical eye on the revised version of the article.
