Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand what a subject is in a sentence. The subject is who or what the sentence is about.
Step 2: Learn what a verb is. The verb is the action word in the sentence.
Step 3: Know what subject-verb agreement means. It means the subject and verb must match in number (singular or plural).
Step 4: Identify collective nouns. A collective noun refers to a group of individuals, like 'team', 'group', or 'family'.
Step 5: Remember that collective nouns are usually treated as singular. For example, 'The team is winning.'
Step 6: Look for the correct verb form that matches the collective noun. In this case, 'is' is the correct singular verb for 'team'.
Step 7: Choose the sentence that uses the correct subject-verb agreement.
