Subject-verb agreement is a grammatical rule that states that the subject and verb in a sentence must agree in number. This means that a singular subject should be paired with a singular verb, and a plural subject should be paired with a plural verb.

For example: - The cat sleeps. (singular subject “cat” paired with singular verb “sleeps”) - The cats sleep. (plural subject “cats” paired with plural verb “sleep”)

Subject-verb agreement can become more complex when dealing with compound subjects, indefinite pronouns, collective nouns, and other grammatical structures. It is important to pay attention to the number of the subject and choose the appropriate verb form to ensure subject-verb agreement.

Subject-verb agreement means that the subject and verb in a sentence must match in number. If the subject is singular, the verb should be singular. If the subject is plural, the verb should be plural. For example, “The cat sleeps” and “The cats sleep.” It’s important to choose the right verb form based on the number of the subject.

Now I want to create 3 different versions of this. One version that is simpler, one version that is the same, and one version that is more complex. Format the output in 3 nice sections.

Simpler Version:

Example: - The cat sleeps. (singular subject “cat” paired with singular verb “sleeps”) - The cats sleep. (plural subject “cats” paired with plural verb “sleep”)

Same Version:

Example: - The cat sleeps. (singular subject “cat” paired with singular verb “sleeps”) - The cats sleep. (plural subject “cats” paired with plural verb “sleep”)

More Complex Version:
