question to native speakers
|
Hi to you all native speakers, just a little question as I am working on a worksheet about things you must or mustn �t do at home( trying to squeeze things as our school year is coming to an end and I think there are plenty of things I didn �t have time to study) Anyway would it be correct for me to entitle it : THE DOES AND DON �TS AT HOME. Thanks for your answer, hugs Sylvie |

I favour "dos and don�ts". Some prefer "do�s and don�ts". Whatever the personal preference is, I doubt if there are many educated native speakers who would opt for "does". |

I agree with Alex. I think do �s and don �ts is more common than dos and don �ts, partly because "dos" looks too much like the Spanish word for 2. Bruce |

In my neck of the woods, Do�s and Don�ts is used |
