disagree  Paul Peeraerts: "Schoren" indeed exists as a plural substantive, but imho you cannot combine it in that way with another noun. Then you should say "schoorploeg" where "schoor" is the verbal form.

neutral  Ton Remkes: To Kate and Paul! Shouldn't 'schoren' in this context be considered as a verb rather than a noun/substantive?!
