02br
00why not [Some animals(plural) are better] 01font00'"some animals" is the entity in question; here, it is a singular item.02font02br
02br
00And in (4) sentence, you have written ------ (It could also be omitted)0

0Philip's comments on #2 goes back to the logic, not the grammar.02br
02br
00Some animals have two legs, some have eight, some have six... and some have four. So he has suggested that you say "Some animals" rather than simply "animals" because that makes it true logically. It was okay grammatically, the way it was, but it was not true factually.0-
