00 I want to know whether should I refer to an uncountable noun with a singular or a plural form. For instance, should I say, "Fo thousands of years, mankind searches for a way to save 01 b 00 himself 02 b 00 from death." OR "Fo thousands of years, mankind search for a way to save 01 b 00 themselves 02 b 00 from death." 02 br
