EAP 140 PM - WANG, Lingshan - Week 6 3/4

We should make subjects and verbs agree.
Verbs should agree with their subjects in number and in person. Number means singular or plural, person means first,second or third and so on. For example, I do,you do, we do,they do, he does, she does.
e.g. In present tense form,
I hate you.
We hate you.
He hates you.
They hate you.
A subject has over two parts is said to be compound.  If we use and connect parts,the subjects are nearly always plural.
e.g. Cat and dog are our friends.
     Katy and I always do our homework together.
