Subject-Verb Agreement
            Subject-verb agreement is the correspondence of a verb with its subject in person (first, second, or third) and number (singular or plural). Also called subject-verb concord. The principle of subject-verb agreement applies to finite verbs in the present tense and, in a limited way, to the past forms of the verb to be (was and were).

1.   A subject will come before a phrase beginning with of. This is a key rule for understanding subjects. The word of is the culprit in many, perhaps most, subject-verb mistakes. Hasty writers, speakers, readers, and listeners might miss the all-too-common mistake in the following sentence:
Incorrect: A bouquet of yellow roses lend color and fragrance to the room.
Correct: A bouquet of yellow roses lends . . . (bouquet lends, not roses lend)

2.   Two singular subjects connected by or, either/or, or neither/nor require a singular verb.
       Examples:
My aunt or my uncle is arriving by train today.
      Neither Juan nor Carmen is available.
Either Kiana or Casey is helping today with stage decorations.

3.   The verb in an or, either/or, or neither/nor sentence agrees with the noun or pronoun closest to it.
      Examples:
Neither the plates nor the serving bowl goes on that shelf.
      Neither the serving bowl nor the plates go on that shelf.

4.   As a general rule, use a plural verb with two or more subjects when they are connected by and.
      Example: A car and a bike are my means of transportation.
      But note these exceptions:
      Exceptions:
Breaking and entering is against the law.
      The bed and breakfast was charming.
      In those sentences, breaking and entering and bed and breakfast are compound nouns.

5.   Sometimes the subject is separated from the verb by such words as along with, as well as, besides, not, etc. These words and phrases are not part of the subject. Ignore them and use a singular verb when the subject is singular.
      Examples:
      The politician, along with the newsmen, is expected shortly.
      Excitement, as well as nervousness, is the cause of her shaking.

6.   In sentences beginning with here or there, the true subject follows the verb.
      Examples:
There are four hurdles to jump.
      There is a high hurdle to jump.

7.   Use a singular verb with distances, periods of time, sums of money, etc., when considered as a unit.
      Examples:
      Three miles is too far to walk.
      Five years is the maximum sentence for that offense.
      Ten dollars is a high price to pay.

8.   With words that indicate portions—e.g., a lot, a majority, some, all—Rule 1 given earlier in this section is reversed, and we are guided by the noun after of. If the noun after of is singular, use a singular verb. If it is plural, use a plural verb.
       Examples:
A lot of the pie has disappeared.
      A lot of the pies have disappeared.
      A third of the city is unemployed.

9.   With collective nouns such as group, jury, family, audience, population, the verb might be singular or plural, depending on the writer's intent.
      Examples:
All of my family has arrived OR have arrived.
Most of the jury is here
 OR are here.
      A third of the population was not in favor OR were not in favor of the bill.

Pronoun
            Pronouns are words that we use in place of Nouns (or other Pronouns) in a sentence to make it less repetitive and less awkward. Some of the most common Pronouns are - he, she, you, they, it, etc. These Pronouns are divided into different categories based on their use.
a.       Personal Pronouns
These pronouns are used for a specific object or person and they change their forms to indicate the different genders, numbers, case and persons speaking.
·         Tania told him to take the food to them as soon as possible as it was urgently needed.
‘Him’ is a Pronoun of gender.

b.      Demonstrative Pronouns
Demonstrative Pronouns are used to show or identify one or a number of nouns that may be far or near in distance or time. They are only four in number - This, That, These and Those. This and That are singular demonstrative pronouns and These and Those are plural demonstrative pronouns. They can also be used to show an unspecified quantity in a sentence.

c.       Interrogative Pronouns
Who, Whom, Which and What are Interrogative Pronouns as they are used to ask questions about a person or object that we do not know about. Compounds of these words are made by attaching ‘-ever’ to the words to strengthen the emphasis on the word.

d.      Relative Pronouns
Relative Pronouns are used to join or relate two different clauses together by referring to the noun in the previous clause using the pronouns - Who, Whom, Whose, Which andThat.

e.       Indefinite Pronouns
These pronouns are used to show unspecified objects or people, whether in plural or in singular. They are used to indicate the entire noun or some of the noun or none of the noun. They are used when we want to refer to group of nouns without actually specifying who or how much.

f.       Reflexive and Intensive Pronouns
Reflexive Pronouns are those which are used to indicate a noun which has been used in an earlier part of the same sentence. These pronouns are - Myself, Themselves, Yourself,Ourselves, Herself, Himself and Itself.

g.      Reciprocal Pronoun
There are just two Reciprocal Pronouns - Each other and One another. They are used when two or more nouns are doing or being the same to one another. Both of these pronouns are plural in nature as they can only be used in situations where there is more than one noun.
