Subject-Verb Agreement Rules Based On Number
Grammar ka golden rule hai: **Singular Subject = Singular Verb** (is, was, has, verbs with -s/es) aur **Plural Subject = Plural Verb** (are, were, have, base verb). “The news **is** good” (Sahi) / “The news **are** good” (Galat). In basic points ka dhyan rakhne se aapki writing accuracy 100% ho jayegi.
