    I thought "What are the kinds ... " was grammatically right because 'kinds' are in plural, so is "What are the types ... ".


    Right?


    However, if you search in Google:

    "what are the kinds" - 5,290,000 results
    "what is the kinds" - 11,800,000 results

    "what are the types" - 13,100,000 results
    "what is the types" - 30,400,000 results

    Which is really weird. Any idea why?

    Well, the fact that "bootyliscious" now has an official definition in wikipedia, it doesn't really say a lot for our vocabulary anymore. The people using google search for "what is the type of"... is just silly.
