...I am sorry, but "tights" is not a noun, plus it is "correctly written" in stead of "correct written".
Do you mean to say "thighs"? |

hello,W!
You are right about -is it correct written-is it correctly written because we have an adverb but tights are a piece of clothing made of very thin cloth that fits closely over a woman's hips, legs and feet;
-a pair of tights
Thank you anyway! |

Hello.
That is correct.
if a thread in the tights breaks causing a hole, then the tights may ladder very quickly.
ladder

Hey, thanks for letting me know it. In fact, I've just checked the dictionary for "tights"....and "ladder" too.
But the way you use "ladder" is more commonly used in England....do you live in England (just out of curiosity)? |

I see...I suppose it is quite late in Europe right now?
All I know is that Great Britain includes England, Wales, and Scotland.....what about Ireland (oh please, I mean no offence)? |

Northern Ireland includes itself as part of Great Britain. I live in Wales, and yes it is quite late right now. I'm off to bed soon.
