A collective noun is one that indicates a group. It can be a proper noun, such as the Congress of the United States of America or the Supreme Court or New York Yankees, or it may be a simple noun, such as legislature, jury, or team. Other collective nouns: family, majority (as of people), management, workforce, and faculty. Care should be taken when choosing a verb to go with collective nouns. They can take singular or plural nouns, depending on how they are used in the sentence. When the collective noun is thought of as acting as a whole, it should take a singular verb; when the individual members of a group are thought of as acting independently, then use a plural verb. For example: The jury is deliberating. (Acting as a unit, collective noun takes a singular verb) The jury are taking their seats. (Acting as individuals, collective noun takes plural verb) Beware: many readers will be uncomfortable with plural verbs with collective nouns. For example, "The jury are taking their seats" will sound weird to many readers, even though it is grammatically correct. It may be better to write "The jurors are taking their seats" or "The jury members are taking their seats."
