Subject-verb agreement is a key grammar rule where the subject of a sentence must match the main verb in number. Simply put, singular subjects should pair with singular verbs, while plural subjects should go with plural verbs.
Common mistakes often happen when writers mistake the object of a preposition for the subject, leading to incorrect verb forms.
To avoid these errors, it’s essential to understand the rules of subject-verb agreement and practice isolating prepositional phrases from the subjects. This skill will help you consistently pair subjects with the correct verbs.
