    What does it mean when you think you’re saying: “Each board member (verb) (requirement)”? He’s syllable,

      she looks at the sentence as if she's saying "Each board member" (requirement).  

    In this example, the subject is Each board member.

    Almost every one is an individual. In a word, this narrows down your options a bit.

    What are some good choices you must make since you finished

      reading?  

    Should not have or shouldn’t have isn’t terribly firm, but it works in this context.

    Does not have is firm, but it doesn’t quite work if we’re trying to express a requirement (a should, a must, or a shall ).

    Should not have is very firm.

    Shall not have is very firm, and also very formal and authoritative. Think strict legalese.

    Obviously, you can change the verb / verb tense and remove ‘not’ where necessary. Example (if using must): Must have, must be, must sign, must not be, etc. In addition, you have the flexibility to mix and match these to suit the firmness level of each requirement.

    What’s the best way to look at the options available to you? Any of these work, and none of them are technically incorrect – ultimately, the final decision belongs to the artists and writers who were in charge of drafting the

    document.

  • If I choose “ffluenza” this is a controversial choice, so can I use it in this situation. This would be the adjective form of the relatively new term for pathological materialism, affluenza.

    This term officially denotes a real disorder, but its practical connotation often seems to be ‘the condition of being spoiled as hell’. ”

    Since influenza is the adjective form of influenza (one of affluenza’s etymological parents), affluenza would logically follow as the etymological form of affluenza.
