голова (размером) в несколько футов

the original post makes no sense whatsoever

E.g. "they dug out its few feet head" - would this be incorrect?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Actually, it isn't correct. It should be "two-foot." Whenever we use quantities as adjectives, they always have a hyphen, and the second element is always singular because adjectives in English are never pluralized. That's why we say "the poor, the rich, the sick, etc." Aside from this, the first element has to be numerical, so FEW doesn't work. You can't say "a few-foot ramp" for example.

OK, thank you
Does it have to be 'a few feet long/big head' then?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

It should be a head measuring a few feet
