Singular v. plural noun forms
I would like to know if anyone else with a critical eye and ear has ever witnessed the following pattern: 'one of the + singular noun', often used with a superlative adjective. A typical example would be: 'The Ritz is one of the most prestigious hotel (sic) in London'. I see (and hear) this structure quite frequently, from both native and non-native speakers.
