kolokoy Is my sentence correct? It sounds fine to me. This is one of those cases where you have a countable plural without phrase or clause modifiers (twice: vouchers, transfers ).

  • It sounds fine to me.
  • This is one of those cases where you have a countable plural without phrase or clause modifiers (twice: vouchers, transfers ).
  • Often in these cases there is no appreciable difference between "the" and the null article.
