Did you know? Singular verbs are normally used after fractions, decimals, and other expressions referring to amounts and measurements. Whereas, plural verbs are used when we are talking about numbers of people or things, even after a singular fraction. • Examples: • Singular Verbs - • Three quarters of a ton is too much, (not Three quarters of a ton are . . .) • 3.6 kilometres is about 2 miles. • Plural verbs - • A third of the students are from abroad, (not A third of the students is...) • Half of the glasses are broken. • • #singularpluralverbs #englishgrammar #subjectverbagreement #learnenglish #grammartips
