Dr Roy along with two nurses are going to visit the patient

The actor and director are here

Explanation:

  • Generally, Subjects and verbs should AGREE with one another in number (singular/plural).  Therefore, if a subject is singular, its verb should also be singular; if a subject is plural, its verb should also be plural
  • When the subject of a sentence comprises 2 or more nouns/pronouns connected by and, use a plural verb, for example, She and her friends are at the exhibition.
  • Two or more singular/plural subjects joined by and functions as a plural compound subject and take a plural verb (singular+singular=plural). That is, when the sentence makes use of a compound subject (2 subject nouns joined by and), although each part of the compound subject is singular (actor and director), taken together (joined by and), each one becomes a part of a plural structure and, hence should take a plural verb (are) to agree in the sentence. Example, The ranger and camper see the bear (see is plural).
