| 720480 | 2008-11-16 17:25:00 | pcuserwinvista would be correct ""two Lexus cars" or "two cars made by Lexus" or more accurately "two Lexus cars made by Toyota". The Queen and not many others would also not use the word "youse", there is no such word in her language. "you" is singular and plural. |
