What to Focus On

  • 'Am' is used only with 'I'.
  • 'Is' is used with singular subjects like 'he', 'she', 'it', 'this'.
  • 'Are' is used with plural subjects like 'we', 'they', 'those'.
  • Use 'is' for one person or thing.
  • Use with: he, she, it, this, that.
  • Used in sentences describing current actions or states.
  • Use 'are' for two or more people or things.
  • Use with: we, you, they, these, those.
  • Used to describe current actions or conditions of plural subjects.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

We use 'are' with singular names like 'Raju' because the name sounds strong.

We can use 'an' before any word that starts with a vowel letter.

'Is' can be used with 'I' because 'I' is a single person.

Memory Tips

Use 'am' only with 'I'

Use 'is' with singular nouns and pronouns (he, she, it)

Use 'are' with plural nouns and pronouns (we, you, they)

Use 'an' before words starting with vowel sounds (a, e, i, o, u)
