Good evening
In this sentence :
"a couple of merchants were busily bargaining and were trying to sell their goods to naive tourists who were hunting for souvenirs."
Is it false to write :
A couple of merchants was busily bargaining and was trying to sell their goods to naive tourists who hunting for souvenirs"
Thank you for your explanations
