Subject Verb Agreement Cbse Class 9

Category : 未分类

If we use a singular noun as the subject of a verb, we use a singular verb. Plural nouns accept a plural verb: 6. Long subject: If a sentence or a long group of words is the subject, we must be careful that the verb corresponds to the subject: 17. If a singular subject is associated by and in addition to, except, etc., with another subject or pronoun, we use a singular verb. Here are some rules that govern the concordance of the subject and the verb: rule 8. The noun plural in the form, but the singular in the sense take the verb in the singular. Examples: Rule 7: Collective nouns such as family, couple, employees, public, etc., adopt a singular verb. Instructions: Underline the correct verb in these sentences. 1.

The girl or her sisters (watch, watch) watch TV every day. 2. Rohan (doesn`t, doesn`t) loves sports. 3. His classmates or the boy (studies, studies) before a test. 4. One of the cookies (is, is) missing. 5.

A lady with 10 dogs (live, live) in this big house. 6. Mumps (is, are) very serious. 7. The commission (decides, decides) when it adjourns. 8. Our team (is, is) the best. 9. Everyone (enjoys, enjoys) a good song. 10. Either (is, are) appropriate. Exception: if the collective noun is not used as a unit, but for different individuals or things, it takes a verb in the plural.

This rule states that the word “none” takes a verb according to the meaning of the sentence. It can be singular or plural, depending on the sentence. Question 3. Specify a verb in space in accordance with its subject. (a) No news ……………….. Good news. (b) The girl and the boy…………….. Disappeared. (c) One third of the city…………….. Flooded. (d) “The Three Idiots”.. ……………..

Directed by Raju Hirani. (e) Bhagwan Cela, the writer, and the poet.. …………….. I`m dead. (f) Saffron, white and green …………….. the colours of the Indian flag. (g) Chicken and cheese …………….. My favorite breakfast. (h) The crew…………….. .. Forced to get off the plane. (i) The ship and its crew.

Answer: (a) is (b) have/have (c) war (d) ist (e) hat (f) sind (g) ist (h) war/waren (i) war (j) where the twelfth rule states that nouns such as Amends, Archives, Compasses, glasses, pants are always considered plural and which is also plural with an attached verb. But when used with “a couple of”, they are considered singular. Then the joined verb form also becomes singular.. . .
