Subject/Verb Agreement: Try it Yourself

[Page 5 of 28]

Task: Identify the subject and verb in each of the following sentences. If they agree, click yes, if not, click no. Then click continue.

1. Janie, with her poodle Fido limping behind her, walk to the dog park.

Yes No

2. There is a lot of issues involved in this proposal.

Yes No

3. Spaghetti and meatballs is my favorite meal.

Yes No

Spaghetti and meatballs together as a unit constitute the favorite meal, so they act as a singular subject. They are different foods, but the sentence doesn't discuss them as separate foods. As a single meal, they take the singular "is," so the sentence is correct as it stands.
