Grammar usage: There is always a heavy traffic in the city centre... #1 (permalink) Sat Jul 04, 2009 16:02 pm   Grammar usage: There is always a heavy traffic in the city centre...
 

Hello,

I would like to know what is wrong with these sentences:

1. There is always a heavy traffic in the city centre

2. After lunch we went to shopping

Thanks!

This one should be without "to": After lunch we went shopping.

As far as I know "traffic" is an uncountable noun. So it should be "There is always heavy traffic in the city centre".
