13. Let’s Remember This
 You may know something or have a meaningful experience that you want
to share to others, but if you cannot communicate effectively, your ability to
share knowledge, information, or experiences is affected.
 It is therefore necessary that you learn subject-verb agreement. In this
activity sheet, you’ve learned that in sentences, verbs must always agree with
the noun or pronoun subject.
 Subjects and verbs should agree with one another in number- singular or
plural.
 Thus, if the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular. If the
subject is plural, the verb must also be in plural form.
 There are different rules in subject-verb agreement and learning each of
them will help you become effective communicator of the English language.
