More Information
The correct form of the verb often depends on identifying the main subject and ensuring the verb agrees in number. Expressions like 'neither/nor' and 'along with' affect verb choice.
Tips
Watch out for compound subjects joined by 'and' or 'along with', as they might still take a singular verb if referring to the same subject.
