Subject and verb agreement in writing
The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing or idea that is doing or being something. The verb that follows the subject changes according to whether the subject is singular or plural. Verbs also change according to whether the sentence is in the present or past tense. Can you complete this table with the correct subjects and verbs?
Clauses in a sentence
