How should the sentence above be rewritten to correct the subject-verb agreement error? tommy, in an effort to maintain clownings positive roots , incite dancers to weekly performance battles

in the subject-verb agreement, the subject and the verb should agree with each other in number that is singular or plural. therefore,   the subject is plural then the verb form is plural and if the subject is singular then the verb form is singular.

for example

the child is/are playing in the garden. (subject, a child is singular hence, verb form will be singular.)

books is/are kept on the table. ( subject, books is plural, hence, the verb will be plural.)

hence, the above statement would be written as,

tommy, in an effort to maintain clowning's positive roots , invites dancers to weekly performance battles.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
