When a sentence has two or more subjects, that is called a compound subject. The individual subjects in a compound subject are joined by a coordinating conjunction (and, or, neither, nor). In Subject verb agreement, if subjects are joined by and, they are considered plural. For example, “The teacher and the principal plan to see her parents.” The teacher and the principal here are of different persons so we use the plural verb plan. However, in a sentence like this, “The teacher and principal plans to see her parents.” we use a singular verb plans because of the singular subject. The teacher here and the principal refers to only one person. The removal of the word the makes it singular. Now, since clowning and krumping is similar, we should use a singular verb.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?

Westridge, ohio — more than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after the westridge city council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. the strike affects all bus and rail services throughout westridge and the neighboring communities of turlock, smithfield, and lowell grove. "we hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice," said wanda thompson, a representative of the transportation employees union. "we simply don't get paid what we deserve." members of the westridge city council see the situation differently. "our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs," said raoul cobian, president of the westridge city council. hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end. what is the common name for the underlined information in the article?
