The Errors

In all the 10 sentences, the subject-verb concord wasn't followed.

The Subject - Verb Agreement

The subject - verb concord also known as subject - verb agreement states that a singular noun will always have a singular verb and a plural noun will always have a plural verb.

For example:

She has a car. ----- Singular agreement.

We have many books. ----- Plural agreement.
