This document discusses subject-verb agreement in sentences. It provides examples of different types of subject-verb agreement including: - Sentences using "either...or" and "neither...nor" where the verb agrees with the subject nearer to it. - Sentences using conjunctions like "as well as" where the verb agrees with the first subject. - Sentences using quantifiers like "each of" and "every one of" taking a plural verb despite a singular subject. - Collective nouns like "every school and college" and "a good deal of" taking a singular verb.
