What to Focus On

  • Singular subject → Singular verb
  • Plural subject → Plural verb
  • The verb must match the subject, not the object or any other word in the sentence.
  • Always find the real subject of the sentence.
  • Do not confuse the verb with a noun near it but not the subject.
  • 'There is' is used with singular subjects.
  • 'There are' is used with plural subjects.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If a plural noun is near the verb, the verb should be plural.

When two singular subjects are joined by 'and', the verb can sometimes be singular.

'With' or 'as well as' makes the subject plural, so the verb should be plural.

Memory Tips

Singular subject takes singular verb; plural subject takes plural verb.

The verb must agree with the actual subject, not the word near it.

Sentences starting with 'There' — verb agrees with the real subject after it.

Two singular subjects joined by 'and' take a plural verb — unless they refer to the same person.
