Beyond the Answer

The boy and his mother **have** to go to the barber to have his hair shaved before the new term **starts**. Is **either** the teachers or the pupils happy about the new regulations? Neither the new textbooks, nor the new overhead projector **has** arrived on time. The success of a person **depends** on education. The taxes that **pay** for our education come from taxpayers, so you have to appreciate the opportunities you **are** getting. They **know** it is not right to bunk school. Mathematics **is** my favourite subject. Did you know that subject-verb agreement is one of the most common pitfalls in English grammar? It’s all about ensuring that the subject and verb in a sentence work together in number—singular or plural. Missteps often happen when the subject is complicated, so when in doubt, look for the primary subject to steer clear of confusion! Diving into grammar rules can be a blast—try some grammar games or quizzes! Websites like Grammarly and ProWritingAid offer interactive lessons and exercises. Plus, reading a variety of literature can also sharpen your instinct for the right agreements—who knew perfecting grammar could be such a fun adventure?
