Subject-Verb Agreement
Basic
 Rule
-Singular
subjects need
singular verbs.
-Plural subjects
need plural
These create problems:
• Pronouns such as everyone and everybody seem
  plural, but they are always singular — so they
  need a singular verb.


  1. Everyone who worked on the
    science project is a winner.

   2. Someone has to answer the
   phone.
These create problems:

• None is usually regarded as singular, but it can
  be used as a plural pronoun.


 None of the boys has helped at the
  game.
                       OR
 None of the boys have helped at the
  game.
These create problems:

Phrases such as together with, along with, and as
  well as seem to combine subjects, but they do not
  .
Some of the tile in our room, as well
 as the hall, was soaked.
The major problem we had, together

 singular.
1. Either of those answers seems to
  be right.
2. You can have the bed by the
  window or the one by the door.
  Either is okay with me.
These create problems:

Verbs in the present tense for third-person,
  singular subjects (he, she, it and anything those
  words can stand for) have s-endings. Other
  verbs do not add s-endings.


 1.He asks for help.
 2.She asks for help.
 3.They ask for help.
