Professor Trillium introduces the concept of subject-verb agreement, focusing on when to use 'is' and 'are' based on whether a noun is singular or plural. The lesson provides examples with singular nouns like Pluto and Venus, and plural nouns like asteroids and planets. It explains that 'is' is used with singular nouns, while 'are' is used with plural nouns or multiple singular nouns. The video includes practice examples and concludes with an assignment on the Trillium English website.
