Companies singular and plural
[edit]Hello. In British English, referring to companies in the plural is acceptable, and indeed preferable to referring to them in the singular. It's context-dependant to be sure, but the general rule is that a company is made up of people, and thus can count as a plural instead of a singular. See American and British English grammatical differences#Subject-verb agreement. Further, per WP:ENGVAR, you should refrain from changing the style of English once one national variety has been established in that article. -mattbuck (Talk) 06:34, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
