Who S A Couple
👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻 ALL INFORMATION CLICK HERE 👈🏻👈🏻👈🏻
Dear All,
I'm wondering whether we should say who or which or that, and then has or have, and then its or their in this sentence:
The couple who/which/that... has/have two or more kids will have to think about dividing it's/their duities in the best possible way.
Thank you!

There's no Language Academy in the Anglo-Saxon world to decree what people "should say". Which sounds awful to my ear as the reference is to people. It's is a typo. Apart from that, all the options are grammatical. Plural forms are very common in British English in cases like this.
Logic need not apply. For example, it has been common and correct English for centuries to mix singular and plural in sentences like this: Everybody takes off their hats.

Couple is a collective noun. In American English, collective nouns tend to be treated as singular. This is not always the case in the UK. It is safe to say that, in American English, one must decide whether said couple is considered as a united entity (already wed) or not. Example: The couple are to be married on the fifth. This married couple is happy.
The correct relative pronoun for couple a collective now is that, however, liberal grammarians are starting to accept the American tendency to mix up which and that as personal relative pronouns. Which should preferably have a much more general and broad reference or application, in formal English, as seen in the example: She likes me a lot, which makes me very happy.
Its is a possessive adjective; it’s is always an abbreviation for it is! Furthermore, since the collective noun couple refers to two partnered adults, the possessive adjective, used as a relative element or not, is normally their. This is so even though they are viewed as a married unit. Its would only be appropriate for a grammatically sexless infant or baby, Although if the sexual gender is noon, his or her might still be correctly used. Example: The couple exchanged their Christmas gifts. The newborn cried for its mother.
