Ngược lại, ba động từ Ame sử dụng 50% hoặc nhiều hơn thời gian (quyết định, đảm bảo và đề xuất) và đây là tất cả gây nên yếu kém.

In contrast three AmE verbs use should 50 per cent or more of the time decide ensure and suggest and these are all weak triggers.

The one noun that goes against this trend is advice where all BrE mandative complements were in the subjunctive and all AmE mandates were found with the modal should even though the number of overall occurrences is quite small.

This suggests a trend towards BrE using stronger triggers in the subjunctive similar to what was found for verbs. The distribution of mandate types in adjective triggers is reported in Figure 14.7. The distinction in mandative types between BrE and AmE is even more apparent in adjectives than in nouns. Of the six identified .
