Pop quiz

I enjoyed this quick refresher on subject-verb agreement, and I hope you will, too.


The quiz was created by journalist Pam Nelson of The News & Observer (in North Carolina).

4 out of 5. Woo! (The first one tripped me up.)

4 out of 5. Whoopee!

I wasn't paying attention to the one I was wrong on.

My bad.

Apparently, consistency is in the air. 4 out of 5 here, too. The first one was my downfall as well.

Who among us wouldn't have reworded that sentence (no. 1) just to get around having to figure out if it agreed? Yes, four out of five for me, too.
