Dear Torsten,
Though I knew about all the words in the recording (relative pronouns), I hardly understood the audio text. Maybe the recording is a little too fast for me, but I think it's my problem in audio understanding.
Best regards, Diana |

hi
the audio sounds very good for learners with stress where necessary. She has some accent but clear pronunciation.
It is very learning centered as in teaching/lecturing as opposed to authentic or emotive language.
Good for anyone who wants very deliberate learning through listening, good for lower level learners. _________________ Please meet Stewart Tunncilff |

Hi Diana,
You could use either. You could also say 'comment' or 'comments'. In this construction: made some remark to the effect that ...I believe the singular is more common because it doesn't exactly refer to a group if remarks.
