Grammar
Any + countable nouns
I have a doubt regarding the use of 'any'.
The context is a job interview.
Manager: What about training courses? Did you take any?
Candidate: Yes. I took a XYZ course in 2012.
Manager: Any other course?
I normally say "Any other COURSES?" (any + countable noun: use the plural form of the noun) but I was wondering whether, in this case, "Any other COURSE?" (course - singular) is grammatically wrong.
