Subject and Verb Agreement

           A good sentence has a verb that "agrees" with the subject. There are many rules yet the main point is that, if the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular in form.

*A singular verb usually ends in -s
RULE 1: Miyu shares her food to the beggar.  (Miyu-the subject is singular)
   Miyu and Raiku share their food to the beggar. (The subjects are plural)

Other examples:
She loves to eat  bananas
They love to eat bananas

*But remember! The pronouns, "I "and "You"  take a plural verb.

I like the doll  not I likes the doll
You are beautiful not you is beautiful.

* The Pronoun "I' is also usually paired with the linking verb "am" not "is"

I am good in English not I is good in English.

Now Can you tell if the verb agrees with the subject in these sentences?

1. Ping hate walking in the rain.

2. The girl beside the basket of flowers looks unhappy.

3. Is you looking for this dog?

4.Everybody is talking.

5. The news are unbelievable.
