What to Focus On

  • Subject-Verb Agreement means the verb must match the subject.
  • Singular subject → singular verb
  • Plural subject → plural verb
  • Use 'is' with singular subjects
  • Use 'are' with plural subjects and 'you'
  • Use 'am' only with 'I'
  • 'I' always takes 'am'
  • 'You' always takes 'are'
  • Collective nouns depend on context

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If a subject looks plural because it ends in 's', the verb must be plural.

With 'I', we can use 'is' because it sounds formal.

You' is plural, so it always refers to more than one person.

Memory Tips

Singular subjects take singular verbs (is, am, has, etc.)

Plural subjects take plural verbs (are, were, have, etc.)

Use 'am' only with 'I'

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