Gramática: Adjetivos Numéricos
Esse é mais um campeão de audiência na lista de erros comuns cometidos por nós brasileiros. Em inglês, os substantivos ficam no singular quando são usados como adjetivos e precedidos por um numeral. Observe com atenção os exemplos.

dez minutos / uma caminhada de dez minutos- three months / a three-month old baby
- três meses / um bebê de três meses de idade
- five dollars / a five-dollar note
- cinco dólares / uma nota de cinco dólares
- forty thousand dollars / a forty-thousand dollar car
- quarenta mil dólares / um carro de quarenta mil dólares
