The contribution of X
“Contribution” means how much do you give to something, how much do you give to
the whole/ the total. “Contribution” works when we talk about percentages because
“percentage” is looking at the whole (100%). So, here I can say:
The contribution of romance films stood at more than 50% in 1990.
Romance film’s contribution stood at more than 50% in 1990.
Romance film contributed more than 50% in 1990.
What another word for “film types”?
Film kinds = film types = film genres
A genre is a type of something. For example, action/horror is a genre of film, romance
is a genre of film, etc.
Examples: three kinds of films = three genres of films = three types of films (NOT
three film types or three film kinds)
