Subject-Verb Agreement

• The subject-verb agreement provides us with the rules of placing a correct verb in correspondence to the subject.

• 'Mr. Gopalan' is the subject in this sentence. The subject is thus singular.

• 'Picks' is the singular verb. Thus it is the answer.

• 'Pick' is the plural verb. Hence, it cannot be placed in this sentence.
