GRAMMAR CHEAT

adjective to noun

ADJECTIVE BECOMES NOUN.
ex. poor, dead, sick, wise, homeless, etc

if you have an adjectivized noun (adjective becomes noun) treat and pair it with plural verbs.

therefore, The poor ARE [dili, the poor is...]....the dead HAVE [pls dont say, the dead IS...] .....the WISE DO....[if you write THE WISE IS...THEN...you are incorrect!]

formula: adjective to noun + plural verbs

ALL of versus ALL

http://www.grammar-monster.com/lessons/all_of.htm

Using All and All Of There is often confusion over all and all of. As a very general guideline, use all of when the next word is a pronoun (e.g., us, you, it, him, her). Examples:  All of us...    All of you...    All of it...   Do not use all of for normal nouns - just use all. Examples:  All the soldiers...    All the nurses...    I need all of the chairs.    (The word chairs is not a pronoun.)  All of the divers returned safely.

NOT A RULE BUT A GUIDELINE This is not a "rule" but a guideline. The word allcan be an adjective (e.g., all the soldiers) or apronoun (e.g., all of the soldiers), but as an adjective, the word all does not sit comfortably before a pronoun. Therefore, terms like "all us" sound wrong. Native English speakers would much rather hear "all of us." For many, all soldiers seems less clumsy than all of the soldiers, but both are acceptable.   Don't eat all the cake.    Don't eat all of the cake.
