    Bonjour,

    Je suis d'accord avec gerondif. Moi aussi je ne vois pas de probleme avec "slight problem"
    pour celui ci:
    Would you move these equipment to the store room please?
    A. Would
    B. these
    C. equipment
    D. room
    Réponse proposée : B. that equipment
    Comment peut savoir si la faute est these ou equipment ? Etant donné que la faute peut etre aussi l'oublie d'un s à "equipment" non ?

    On peut dire aussi "this equipment". Aussi, equipment est indénombrable alors on ne peut pas mettre un "s" avec equipment.
