TEACHERS INPUT
In order to find out if our subject and verb agree, there is a need to identify the subject of our sentence.
In Sample (a), the subject is singular, therefore our verb is singular. In sample (b), our subject is plural,
therefore our verb is plural. Notice the difference in the formation of the subject from singular to plural
compared to the formation of the verb from singular to plural. When we make a subject plural, we usually
add s or es, but when we make a verb singular, we add s.
General Rule of Subject-Verb Agreement

Singular Subject ⇒ Singular Verb
Plural Subject ⇒ Plural Verb
The subject in the sentence matches the verb. They must accept in two ways:
1. In number: Singular vs. Plural
2. In-person: First, Second, or Third Persons
Additional Rules
1. If subjects are joined by and, they are considered plural.
Example: The quarterback and the coach are having a conference.
2. If subjects are joined by or or nor, the verb should agree with the closer subject.
Example: Either the baby or the puppies drink milk.
3. The relative pronouns (who, whom, which, and that) are either singular or plural, depending on the
words they refer to.
Example: The sales manager is a good researcher who spends a great amount of time surfing
the Web for information.
4. Indefinite pronouns (someone, somebody, each, either one, everyone, or anyone) are

considered singular and need singular verbs although they convey plural meaning.
Example: Anyone who wants to pursue higher education has to pass entrance exams.
5. A few subjects look plural but are really singular or vice versa.

Example: The news of the discovery is spreading.
6. Expressions stating amount of time, money, weight, volume are plural in form but take a singular verb
as in:
Example: Two hundred dollars is a lot of money.
STUDENTS’ CONTRUCTIVE LEARNING (ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS)

Things to remember in subject- verb agreement
a) The trick is to know whether the subject is singular or plural.
b) The next trick is to recognize whether the verb is singular or plural

5. Both these boys is/are going to market.
Group Work:
Students, in their quality circles, construct five subject-verb agreement sentences. Following that,
each group will determine the subject and verb. Those groups that respond first will automatically receive
one point. The evaluation will be based on their performance, completeness of answer, and authenticity
of explanation.
