Nope

What wrong with the tshirt?
Adventure awaits and a mermaid?

Oh adventures awaits?

That is not correct ❌

It says ‘adventures [plural] awaits’.

It should either be: ‘adventure awaits’ or ‘adventures await’.

It's not "Adventure awaits" it's "Adventures [plural] awaits [also plural]".

It’s worse in some of the clothes shops Europe. I check everything before DP buys tops printed in English for his DC.

I was seriously doubting myself because I thought how could someone do that on a t-shirt in a mainstream shop?!!

At least it doesn't have a bloody apostrophe in it!!

Found this one as well in Sainsbury's!

Btw it is always T-shirt, added pedantry

'Awaits' isn't plural. It's the 3rd person singular form of the verb, which is exactly why it can't go with the plural noun 'adventures'!

I don't understand how these have got through production

Thanks for the correction. I just saw the letter 's' and automatically thought 'plural'.

That's a glaring error. I wouldn't buy it.

It's so bad isn't it!!
I'm just baffled how it's happened
It's not like it's some unknown cheap as anything shop either

I'm pretty sure the accent on this one is wrong as well.

Yes!

It's just so obvious

No grammar mistakes here but I wouldn't want my 7 year old dressed in this with the Do You Wanna Be In My Gang links.

The copy-editor for my first novel pointed out that I’d spelled it ‘T-shirt’, ‘tshirt’, and ‘t-shirt’ (28 times) over the course of 97,000 words. I had not realised that there were that many T-shirts/tshirts/t-shirts in the bloody novel, however spelled! Now no spelling of it looks at all correct to me…

Another one!

They've spent Fleur incorrectly on this one! I just can't understand how these things happen!!
