15. Mathematics (is, is) John`s favorite subject, while civics (is, is) Andrea`s favorite subject. Choose the correct form of the verb that corresponds to the subject. This is the rule for all verbs (skip/go/read/etc.). Subject-verb pairing is one of the first things you learn in English lessons: each refers to each individual person. These subjects coincide with a verb in the third person singular. Countless nouns also use the same verbs as singular nouns. For example: 4. Sentences in parentheses () or commas are not part of the topic. In this English lesson, you will discover more advanced cases of subject-verb correspondence that confuse many learners.

Similarly, the theme is the bird in the trees. This is one thing, so the verb will be “was”, not “were”. For quantifiers that specify a part, e.B. “many, a majority, some, all”, the verb is in agreement with the noun that comes after the quantifier. That`s why we say “have a lot of people” and not “have a lot of people.” English is fun, isn`t it? 🙂 These topics are also singular, although they talk about a group of people. These words are irregular plural nouns (nouns that are not formed by adding -s) and they take the plural form of the verb: 2. In reverse sentences, the verb corresponds to the noun that comes after. These words always take the plural form of the verb: again, the subject is “The man (who bought a hundred houses)”. To find the subject, just look at the verb and ask yourself, what is rich? The answer is that man (not houses) is rich. In English, if the subject of a verb is the third person singular (He/She/It), then the verb has a ` s at its end.

Here`s an example with the verb like: I`d say this quiz is so difficult for me because I know the right verb has to be used. So that I can answer if it is “is” ar “are”, “w/s” or “without s”. I looked at the noun, whether plural or singular, even if it is present or past. I know for myself that it is not easy to identify the word of writing because there are things I did not know. 1. The word that comes closest to the verb is not always the subject. 3. Everyone / Someone / Everyone / Person / etc are singular subjects. Two singular nouns connected by ET result in a plural subject.

The main name of the phrase is “The Leader”. The prepositional phrase “students” changes the subject. The full topic is The Student Leader. Is the subject singular or plural? It is singular (one) and the third person (the leader = she/he). A plural noun is more than a thing. These plural subjects are the same as “you”. If the subject of a sentence (e.B” “I”) does not match the verb (e.B. “are”), we say that the subject and verb do not match.

In other words, you have a subject-verb match error (SVA), which is a common mistake for English learners. really a great exercise. I have nothing to say. but in reality it is a very good exercise. nice exercise, it`s very helpful and grateful for me. I understood that very well. Thank you very much. Thanks again……..

These exercises have my knowledge of SVA.It was enjoyable and very beneficial. I liked to answer it. 8. The man with all the birds (alive, alive) in my street. 21. Committee members (leads, leads) live very differently in private. One of the best sites I`ve ever seen!!! Thank you!!. 19.

In this bag were (were, were) fifteen sweets. Now there is (there, there is) only one! Thank you for your help. It`s fun to respond to these exercises. It`s so helpful for me to improve my grammar even further. 7. One of my sisters (is, are) on a trip to France. Your right, but I never passed any of the tests, I mean, I made at least one mistake in the answers to the questions. Sincerely, Rishita 🙂 Keep teaching us, thank you for giving some knowledge! Godblessyou.

I created the above worksheet for my students in an EAP (English for Academic Purposes) program. Students, you can do the exercises below. It`s simple, but I have a few mistakes. More practice and study for me. Hehe Very helpful! Apparently, this is now the norm in teaching. My teacher shows us that many chickens are the answer. Although I don`t understand how we can write, we are with a loy. 16. Eight dollars (is, are) the price of a film today.

There is a debate about the word “data”! Technically, the data are plural (the singular form is “date”). However, in everyday language, people often treat “data” as “information” – as an innumerable name that takes the singular form. Both forms are therefore correct: “The data is accurate” and “The data is accurate”. You can read more about the “data debate” here and here. That was good. it really helped me a lot. this allowed me to correct my previous mistakes. “Half of the students come from another country.” It`s not child`s play, it requires a broad understanding. Yes, it sounds simple, but the fact is not. Repeat the reading of the sentences until it is clear to us. It wasn`t that easy, but it`s also so hard to answer.

I would say that I may have improved. 10. The players, as well as the captain, want, want) win. 22. Teach us later: “Many of the houses in this neighborhood don`t have a garage.” Undoubtedly very useful to overcome at least insensitive grammatical errors. Oh my God!, please keep teaching us, it`s very, very GOOD, THANK YOU!! “Some students won`t pass.” It is very easy to learn this way. Thank you A few sentences confused me, but I know that this quiz will make me understand everything better on the subject. Yes, it helped correct the errors, but it pointed out the errors and made it very easy to change the answers.

Sincerely, Rishita (from Anonymous) 2. My mother or father (is, are) come to the meeting. I started with Advance and still haven`t had a single mistake This quiz really made me think critically.
