[Ashley]

Dear all

Which one would be better ?. Thank you all again.

* Let the fate decide on your behalf.
* Let the fates decide on your behalf.

* No one can fight the fate.
* No one can fight the fates.

Thanks

Hi Ashley

Normally you would not use the word "the" with the word "fate". (singular)

Normally the word "fate" is singular, but it can also be used as a plural sometimes, and then you need the word "the" (as you wrote).

What I might say:
Let fate decide (for you).
You can't fight fate.
