Oct 28, 2014 at 16:11 comment added sawa Thanks for collecting the examples. However, the first, second, third, and fifth of your examples are cases where this happens in the middle of a sentence, and are obviously wrong. The fourth example is in an isolated context, but has a plural for 1, and that is the case I mentioned as bad. I was wondering if a plural number with a singular noun sounded bad in an isolated context.
