Описание к видео Subject Verb Agreement | Ten Important Rules | Part 3

In this video, we will understand what is Subject Verb Agreement :
Subject Verb Agreement says In any sentence, Singular Subject must have a Singular Verb and Plural Subject must have Plural Verb.
Then, we introduced ten new rules of cases of subject-verb agreement.
Which are,
Rule 1.: In case of Collective Noun in the sentence,
we use a singular verb when the members of the group are acting together as a single unit.
and a plural verb when the members of the group are acting separately and not as a single unit.
Rule 2.: If a gerund or an infinitive comes as a subject, the verb will always be singular.
Rule 3.: Error of Proximity, Here, the verb is made to agree in number with a noun associated with it
instead of with its proper subject.
Rule 4.: When the prepositional phrases separate the subjects from the verbs, they do not affect the verbs.
Rule 5.: In sentences beginning with here or there, the singular verb is used when the singular subject is there in the sentence
and a plural verb is used when the plural subject is there in the sentence.
Rule 6.: Use a singular verb with distances, periods of time, sums of money, etc., when considered as a unit.
Rule 7.: When 'None' is used with a prepositional phrase starting with of, the subject can be both plural and singular.
Rule 8.: Two nouns qualified by each or every, even though connected by and, require a singular verb;
Rule 9.: Remember two cases in case of words Most/Most of/ All/ All of/ A lot of/ Some of/ in a sentence,
If Countable Noun is used than Plural verb will come.
If Uncountable Noun is used than Singular Verb will come.
Rule 10.:Words with suffix body/thing/one will carry singular verb.
