[QUOTE="John B. Matthews, post: 4221026"] The term descriptivist is new to me; thank you. Subjectively, the impulse arose from realizing that "There's some [plural] ..." had slipped into my writing. It sounded right, but read wrong. The prescriptively correct contraction "There're some [plural] ...." sounds awkward with my (customary) rhotic "r", but it sounds perfectly normal when spoken with Shelby Foote's mellifluous, non-rhotic, Mississippi accent. Well said. [/QUOTE]
