Dream Come True
Hi,
When I write "a dream come true", Word 2010 shows it's an error (subject-verb agreement). It suggests either "a dream comes" or "dreams come".
I checked online and it seems a dream come true is common usage. Can someone point me in the right direction as to the right phrase I should use?
