To glcarolyn :
1. Thanks for pointing out the mistake of using singular by 004.
2. We do not need anyone to teach us the word "mannerism".
3. Those men are (X the) police.

Thanks Ken for referring to my answer about 小動作 , I almost forgot it.
When‘d係佢既小動作’is translated to English, words like 'action' or 'habit' are not suitable (唔好隨便把‘動作’譯成 'action' ); 'gestures' fits best here.
2008-11-14 19:23:39 補充：
The word 'mannerism' might be an alternative, but please note that it is far less frequently used than 'gestures'.
Why not choose 'gestures' --- it is simple, correct and known to most people.

of course "mannerism" is an acceptable choice, but pls note that the word is countable so "Those are his mannerism_." should be changed.
also "action_"

police 可以是 collective noun, 但 mannerism 不是.
2008-11-09 17:22:30 補充：
mannerism
noun [C]
He's got some very strange mannerisms.
We've spent so much time together that we've picked up each other's mannerisms.

mannerism 此字頗 "tricky", 因為通常我們見 -ism 尾的字, 都少有想到是個普通的 countable noun.
also "action_"

”小動作”係 MANNERISM
o個d係佢既小動作, 佢成日都咁做:
Those are his mannerism. He does them all the time.
2008-11-07 06:41:00 補充：
Let us learn the word mannerism which collectively emcompasses all types of 小動作.
