Is the word after 'footwear' in this sentence correct? Should it stay 'enhance' or should it be 'enhances'?
The sentence is this:
Take time to explore how your beautifully crafted footwear enhance your every moment.
This doesn't read comfortably to me and I feel that it should be 'enhances'.
Which is correct? I am proofreading a document and I am aware that 'footwear' can be the plural form, too. Would that mean that 'enhance' is then correct, even if it doesn't seem to read correctly?
Thank you
Solution 1:
I am aware that 'footwear' can be the plural form,
No. "footwear" is uncountable and thus takes a singular verb
