Here Are More Of The Most Amazing Images Of Cars
Is the sentence grammatical?
Shouldn’t it concoord is with the uncountable more (of), instead of its current plural are?
According to Microsoft® Encarta® 2009:
adjective: I need more light.
pronoun: There aren’t any more of these.
pronoun: No more is expected.
more can be understood as multiple in such partitive constructions with a plural countable noun:
We questioned 100 people. More of them like sunshine than sleet.
and as singular with a singular uncountable noun:
The company spends a lot of money. More of it goes to energy than to taxes.
