Sir Michael, just have a question regarding this topic. How about all departments, all the departments, all of the departments. What are the differences of the three? Hope you can help me with this. Thanks.
Hi Dexter. Thanks for asking. “All” and “Half” are exceptions and can be used with a determiner but without “of.” So you can say, All the departments or Half the departments.
Great Question!
Michael
