Usage
The plural of kind often causes difficulty. With this or that, speaking of one kind, use a singular construction: that kind of fabric doesn't need ironing. With these or those, speaking of more than one kind, use a plural construction: these kinds of changes were observed in several species. The use of these kind (i.e. with kind in the singular), as in these kind of questions are not relevant, is ungrammatical and should be avoided.
