							| Grammaticality 
 |  
							| Hi there, 
 Here I am with another question about grammaticality. Which one is right for the following sentence: 
 X and Y are indicator/indicators of the importance of this subject. 
 Thanks a lot |  20 Feb 2013

							| Indicators, because together, they make a plural. You could, of course, express this differently - X and Y demonstrate/ emphasise/underline the importance.... Or, X and Y are indicative of .... 
 Hope this helps. |  20 Feb 2013
