Question

What are the three types of concord with examples?

Answer 1

The three types of concord are Grammatical concord, Proximity concord, and Notional concord.

Explanation:

• In modern English, the concept of concord is restricted.
• Concord between a pronoun and its antecedent in terms of number, person, and gender is known as noun-pronoun concord.
• When it comes to numbers, inflections at the end of a word are commonly used to indicate subject-verb concord.
• The verb cannot agree with both parts of the subject in a sentence like Either John or his brothers will bring the dessert.
• Some people believe that the verb should agree with the subject that is closest to the verb. The term for this is "agreement by proximity."
• Concord is a term used in grammar to describe how a word has a form that corresponds to the number or gender of the noun or pronoun it refers to.
• For example, in 'She hates it,' the singular form of the verb and the singular pronoun'she' are in agreement.
• Notional agreement (or concord) in English grammar refers to verbs agreeing (or concording) with their subjects.
• Pronouns agreeing (or concording) with their antecedent nouns on the basis of meaning rather than grammatical structure.

Answer 2

Grammatical concord, Proximity concord, and Notional concord are the three types of concord.

Explanation:

The concept of concord is limited in modern English.

Noun-pronoun concord is the agreement between a pronoun and its antecedent in terms of number, person, and gender.

Inflections at the end of a word are widely employed to show subject-verb concord in numbers.

The verb cannot agree with both parts of the subject in a sentence like Either John or his brothers will bring the dessert.

Some people believe that the verb should agree with the subject that is closest to the verb. The term for this is "agreement by proximity."

Concord is a term used in grammar to describe how a word has a form that corresponds to the number or gender of the noun or pronoun it refers to.

For example, in 'She hates it,' the singular form of the verb and the singular pronoun'she' are in agreement.

In English grammar, nominal agreement (or concord) refers to verbs that agree (or concord) with their subjects.

On the basis of meaning rather than grammatical form, pronouns agree (or concord) with their antecedent nouns.
