Grammar help please?

Hi,

Could you please advise me if these two words share the same meaning?


An abnormal / anomalous weather, behaviour, condition.


Cheers

'weather' is not countable, so you can't use 'an' with that one. 'behaviour' can be countable or not. Otherwise, OK.

  • 'weather' is not countable, so you can't use 'an' with that one.
  • 'behaviour' can be countable or not.
  • Otherwise, OK.
  • 'abnormal' and 'anomalous' are about the same.
  • So these are all OK: Abnormal weather.

Otherwise, OK. 'abnormal' and 'anomalous' are about the same.

So these are all OK:

Abnormal weather. Anomalous weather. (no 'an')
Abnormal behaviour. Anomalous behaviour.
An abnormal behaviour. An anomalous behaviour.An abnormal condition. An anomalous conditio
