Subject VERB Agreement

Subject verb agreement refers to the fact that the subject and verb in a sentence must agree in number. In other words, they both must be singular or they both must be plural. ... Since he and she are singular pronouns walks is a singular verb.

Examples

When using "or" or "nor" in a compound subject containing a singular and plural subject, the verb agrees with the closest subject. Examples of compound subjects using or, neither-nor, or either-or include: My mom or dad is coming to the play. ... (closest subject is singular)

Rules

Rule 1:When two subjects are joined by 'and', the verb is plural.

RULE 2: When two singular nouns joined by 'and' refer to the same person or thing, the verb is singular. ...

RULE 3: Indefinite pronouns (everyone, each one, someone, somebody, no one, nobody, anyone, anybody etc.)

what is the subject-verb agreement?

\\\huge{ \mathbb⫷❥\red{A᭄} \green{n}\mathbb\blue{s} \purple{w} \mathbb \orange{e}\pink{r}⫸}\:

Subjects and verbs must AGREE with one another in number (singular or plural). Thus, if a subject is singular, its verb must also be singular; if a subject is plural, its verb must also be plural.

EXAMPLES

Here are some examples of subject verb agreement (the subject is bolded and the verb underlined):

1. My dog always growls at the postal carrier.

2. Basketballs rolls across the floor.

3. I don't understand  the assignment.

4. These clothes are too small for me.

5. Peter  doesn't like vegetables.

6. Each gets a trophy for playing.

7. Somebody will pay for this.
