Re: "Many a"

Hi Paul

Yes, really helpful. I heard this expression “many a time” many a time (coincidentally though) throughout an English movie and impressed in its euphony. I wanted to incorporate this expression in my documents, with a plausible intent, which are related to Construction RFIs.

Re: "Many a"

I see. Well, you may be able to use it, but there are less 'idiomatic' alternatives. For example:


"I've told you many times not to ​ride ​your ​bike on the ​pavement".

"I've told you so often not to ​ride ​your ​bike on the ​pavement".

"I've told you on countless occasions not to ​ride ​your ​bike on the ​pavement".
