Exercise : Subject and Verb
Agreement Exercise
Yesterday, I learned about the subject and verb
agreement. The subject of the agreement is the compatibility between the verbs
(verbs) and the subject of careful sentences. The same as number, i.e. the
singular (singular) or plural (plural).
the subject can be a noun (a noun), pronouns (pronoun), or other people as objects of the word contruction area it functions, such as the gerund and the infinitive. On the basis of the basis of a single subject (single subject) used the singular (singular verb) while the plural subject (the subject is plural) used a plural verb (plural verb).
