Question

1. All the things I want for Christmas are many gifts.

2. All of the things I want for Christmas are many gifts.

3. All of the things I want for Christmas is many gifts.

Which is wrong and Which is correct?

Answer 1

1 is best, 2 is okay, 3 is dead wrong because of using 'is' for 'are.'

Answer 2

I would drop "All the things" completely.

"I want many gifts for Christmas" would be the proper way to say it.

Answer 3

None.

"All  I want" implies that you only wish for one thing, and therefore it conflicts with "many" .

You can have "For Christmas I want many gifts", or " For Christmas I want several gifts".

"All the things I want are books/ CDs/ clothes"  

or change your sentence :

"For Christmas I hope to get many gifts"

Answer 4

1. All the things I want for Christmas are many gifts.

But personally, I would shorten it to:

"I want many things for Christmas."  "All the things" is a bit extraneous.
