None of my friends was there.
Explanation:
- We have to write down the most appropriate word from the given two options and complete the sentence.
- Here, the word 'none' is a Pronoun. It means 'not any' and this is Singular.
- So, we have to choose a Singular Verb to match the Singular Pronoun. The appropriate word is 'was'.
- Thus the complete sentence : None of my friends was there.
Note 1:
Remember that, the Auxiliary Verb 'were' is associative with Plural Subjects, generally. For example,
a. They were going to see the new statue.
b. We were called as soon as the house collapsed.
c. All of my friends were there.
Note 2:
The word 'none' is also used as an Adverb, where it means 'by no amount' or 'not at all'.
