[Grammar] Are you weekends vs Is your weekend

[cubezero3]

Hello, there.

I know people can say Are you weekends longer than two days?

Does the sentence Is your weekend longer than two days? convey the same meaning?

If so, does it mean these two patterns can be used interchangeably?

Many thanks

Richard

They mean the same but are not interchangeable as the first is plural and the second singular.

To me, it's the same as "Is the elephant the largest land animal?" and "Are elephants the largest land animal?"

You could use that "Is your weekend..." to refer to a specific, upcoming weekend. Perhaps there is a holiday added to that particular weekend.
