Subject-Verb Agreement

• Subject-verb agreement refers to the correct usage of verbs based on the singular or plural form of the subject.

• In the sentence 'a', the subject is a singular noun. A textbook is singular and, therefore it takes a singular verb.

• In sentence 'b,' the subject is a collective noun. It is taken as a singular noun and takes a singular verb.
