Hello, I'm Emma from mmmEnglish!

00:12

One of the most common grammar mistakes

00:15

that English learners make

00:17

is to do with the subject verb agreement.

00:21

What's that?

00:23

It's as simple as it sounds!

00:25

The subject and the verb in English sentences

00:29

must agree.

00:31

They must match.

00:33

We go to the beach on Saturdays.

00:37

If the subject is plural,

00:39

you need to use a plural verb form.

00:43

He goes to the beach on Saturdays.

00:47

He goes.

00:49

The subject is singular,

00:51

so you need to use a singular verb form.

00:54

And this is true, most of the time!

00:58

Now, you might be thinking that you

01:01

understand subject verb agreement.

01:03

It's simple, it's easy, right?

01:05

But it's the first thing that many English learners forget!

01:10

But don't worry, there are some simple

01:12

standard rules that you can use to help you.

01:15

But some aspects of singular and plural noun usage

01:21

make this a little more complex.

01:24

So that's why I'm going to teach you some tips

01:27

to master subject verb agreement in English.

01:31

Before we start,

01:32

I want to highlight that there are two main areas

01:35

where subject verb agreement can cause you problems.

01:39

The first is in your writing.

01:42

And it's important to know

01:44

the subject verb agreement rules

01:46

and how to use them correctly

01:48

so that your English writing is grammatically correct.

01:52

The other is your speaking skills.

01:55

Now, perhaps you feel confident that you know

01:58

how to match verbs to their subject

02:01

but the challenge is making that clear

02:04

when you're speaking.

02:06

And sometimes,

02:06

you might not even know this is a problem for you.

02:09

The final consonant sounds are so important

02:13

to communicating clearly.

02:14

But for many English learners,

02:16

it's not that easy to do.

02:19

Pronouncing the difference between do and does.

02:25

Now if this sounds like you,

02:27

then I want you to try and practise with me

02:30

out loud during this lesson.

02:32

Make sure you're hitting those final consonant sounds.

02:37

Okay?

02:38

Let's begin.

02:40

In the present tense,

02:41

nouns and verbs agree

02:44

in opposite ways.

02:46

When your subject is plural,

02:48

you usually add S to show that it's plural, right?
