One of my tutors told me to look into ASMAN pronouns for sentence corrections. I can’t seem to find what this acronym stands for. I get a bunch of blocked sites on my computer when I attempt to search it. Can anyone elaborate on what this is? Thanks..

Hi
Not heard of ASMAN pronouns, but MGMAT guide mentions the SANAM pronouns.
SANAM pronouns are: Some, Any, None, All, More/Most.
These are 5 indefinite pronouns that can be either singular or plural depending on the context of the sentence.
So, ASMAN could be another form of SANAM pronouns.
Hope it helps.

What about "ANY" with plural entity?
For example: Any of the candidates interviewed is good for this position.
As per SANAM, "candidates" is plural, and hence must be followed by "are", not "is". But, the above example is quoted from an official source, I am not able to find the exact source. I had written in my notes.
I just wanted to double confirm my understanding, as it contradicts what MGMAT states in the guide book.
