Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Identify the sentence with a common error.
  • Step 1: Read the sentence carefully to find the subject.
  • Step 2: Identify the subject in the sentence. In this case, the subject is 'Each'.
  • Step 3: Determine if the subject is singular or plural. 'Each' is singular.
  • Step 4: Check the verb that follows the subject. It should agree with the subject in number.
  • Step 5: Since 'Each' is singular, the correct verb form is 'has', not 'have'.
  • Step 6: Identify the error in the sentence where 'have' is used instead of 'has'.
  • Subject-Verb Agreement – Understanding that singular subjects require singular verbs and plural subjects require plural verbs.
