How does subject-verb agreement in simple tense is another not mentioned
above?
Form of a verb or verb phrase in the simple tense-simple tense is not
mentioned above is good when its subject nor singular plural is the same.
Example:
- The elevator worked very well yesterday.
- The elevators worked very well yesterday.
- Andi had gone before Ani arrived.
- Andi and Amir had gone before Ani arrived.
- My mother will go to Bali tomorrow.
- My mother and my father will go to Bali tomorrow.
- Jenny would have passed the test if she had studied well.
- Jenny and Julie would have passed the test if they had studied well.
In the
examples above, we see that his subject is directly followed by the verb. Next,
let's discuss subject-verb agreement when the subject separated by a
prepositional phrase or by expressions (expression).
A. Subject –
verb agreement whent it is separated by prepositional phrase
Example :
- The study of languages is very interesting. (singular subject)
- Several theories on this subject have been debated. (plural subject)
- The view of these disciplines varies from time to time. (singular subject)
- The danger of forest fires is not to be taken seriously. (singular subject)
- The effects of that crime are likely to be devastating. (plural subject)
- The fear of rape and robbery has caused many people to flee the cities. (singular subject).
- The boys in the room are studying (plural subject).
B.
Subject – verb agreement when it is separated together with, along with, as
well as
Example :
- The actress, along with her manager and some friends, is going to a party tonight.
- Mr. Julianto, accompanied by his wife and children, is arriving tonight.
- My wife as well as I is a volleyball player.
Use together with, along with,
accompanied by, and as well as, in a pattern like this only add additional
information. If expression is omitted, the core meaning of the sentence
unchanged, namely:
- The actress is going to a party tonight.
- Mr. Julianto is arriving tonight.
- My wife is a volleyball player.
Conversely, if the conjunction
‘and’ is used to replace the expressions above, then the verb him turned into a
plural.
Example :
- The actress and her manager are going to a party tonight.
- Mr. Julinto and his wife and children are arriving tonight.
- My wife and I are volleyball players.
