    Subject-Verb Agreement

    • The correct subject-verb agreement is demonstrated when the subject and verb in a sentence match in number, either singular or plural.
    • In the sentence "Each of the books (has/have) been read", the correct subject-verb agreement is "has" because the subject "each" is singular.
    • Incorrect subject-verb agreement occurs when the subject and verb do not match in number, resulting in a grammatically incorrect sentence.
