Subject-verb agreement

Subject 的意思是主语，verb 是动词。

Subject-verb 是主语-动词的相应。

意思就是后面verbs 的样子是由 subject 决定的。

就像你的男女朋友是由你自己选，自己决定要的。

Subject-verb agreement examples:

• He, She, It and （一个人的名字）Jerry, Hanjoe 这些呢，都是用 is, does, has, was

• You, We, They and （多个人） Ali and his family 这些呢，都是用 are, do, have, were

• 至于 I 呢， 是用 am, do, have, was (比较特别）
