C. Discussion

Remember class that verbs, unlike nouns, have

the S-form of the word for the singular form and
the base form for its plural form. Please take a
look at the example:
Example:
S-form(singular):
Sings, dances, writes, eats
(Students will give their varied answers)
Give some more examples.
Base Form(plural):
Sing, dance, write, eat (Students will give their varied answers)

Give some more examples.

Very good. Now we will move on with the lesson

regarding the rules on the Subject – Verb
Agreement.

1. A verb agrees with its subject in

number.
Singular subjects take singular verbs. (Students will give their varied answers)
The car stays in the garage.
The flower smells good.

Now, give me your own example

Plural subjects take plural verbs. (Students will give their varied answers)

Jay and Jerold are best friends.

The boys play basketball.

Now, give me your own example

2. The verb agrees only with its subject.

Words between subject and verb do not
affect the number of the subject.
(intervening phrase) (Students will give their varied answers)

One of the eggs is broken.

The women in the pool swim well.

Now, give me your own example

3. Some subjects always take a singular

verb even though the meaning may
seem plural.

These subjects always take singular

verbs:

one somebody
no one anybody
everyone everybody

Examples:
Someone in the game was (not were) (Students will give their varied answers)
hurt.
