A. SUBJECT-VERB AGREEMENT
Subject-Verb Agreement portrays rules in terms of agreement between
the subject and the verb. The subject and verb of the sentence must
agree in number. If the subject is plural, then the verb must be in its
simple form. If the subject is singular, then the verb must be in its –s
form. Always remember, the subject must always agree with the verb,
thus, agreement.

The subject and verb must agree with each other in number. Perhaps
the most important thing for you to know is that singular verbs end with
-s with the exception of I am, and you are (second person singular). If
the subject is plural in number, it takes the simple form of the verb.

How to make the subject and the verb agree with each other? Just follow
these simple steps; First, identify the subject of the sentence. Second,
decide if the subject is singular or plural. Lastly, decide which verb
form will match with the subject.

Let us analyze the examples below.

1. The boy (singular subject) watches (-s form) the movie.
2. The boys (plural subject) watch (simple form) the movie.
3. The rain (singular subject) falls (-s form) at a steady rate.
4. The drops (plural subject) of rain fall (simple form) at a steady rate.
5. Jack (singular subject) enjoys (-s form) playing golf every Sunday.

Remember:
In the present tense, nouns and verbs form plurals in opposite
ways: nouns add an s to the singular form; verbs remove the s
from the singular form.

B. KINDS OF ADJECTIVES
1. Descriptive adjectives tell us about the kind or quality of a noun for
example
nice dress hard work
long stick new house
strong wind rich man
big tree good girl
Examples:
The house was wrecked by the strong wind.
The ball is under the big tree.
Andrea is very happy because they have a new house.

2. Demonstrative adjectives point out nouns. They are always followed

by the nouns which they point out.

This indicates a singular noun that is nearby.

That indicates a singular noun that is far away.
These indicate plural nouns that are nearby.
Those indicate plural nouns that are from a distance.
Examples:
I used to like this bag.
That car is expensive.
These collections have been here since 1992.
Can you pick those toys you played in your room?

3. Possessive adjectives show possession. They are always followed by

a noun. A possessive adjective, also called a possessive determiner,
expresses possession of a noun by someone or something by modifying
the noun.
Examples:
her friend my car his shoes their house

4. Interrogative adjective deals with question-like adjective that refer to a

noun.
Examples: Which movie will you watch?
What item did she buy?

C. CONJUNCTIONS
Conjunction is a word that joins words, phrases, clauses or sentences.
There two kinds of conjunctions such as coordinating conjunctions
and subordinating conjunctions.

Coordinating conjunctions connect words, phrases and clauses.

There are seven (7) basic examples of coordinating conjunctions these
are for, and, nor, but, or, yet and so. (Remember the acronym
FANBOYS).

Subordinating conjunctions connect independent clauses to

dependent clauses. They help show a relationship between two clauses
involving a transition of time or place. It also establishes relationship
between two ideas.

These conjunctions are used to join two clauses together that are
 grammatically unequal.
In other words, the clause without a conjunction (the independent
clause) can stand alone, while the clause that contains the conjunction
(the subordinate clause) cannot.

D. ADVERBS OF INTENSITY AND FREQUENCY

An adverb of intensity gives information about the degree. Adverbs of
intensity can describe a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. They may
be classified as strong, medium, and weak. Study the given examples
below.

Examples:
1. We watched a totally exciting film. (strong)
2. However, my friend said it was fairly interesting. (medium)
3. But, Mica said that it was a bit boring. (weak)

Note that we can determine the feeling of the speaker as to strong,

medium or weak depending on the adverb of intensity used in the
sentence.

An adverb of frequency tells how often something happens, either

definite/exact or indefinite/does not specify exact times. Adverbs of
frequency are often used to indicate routine or repeated activities.
Adverbs such as always, hourly, weekly, daily, yearly, sometimes, often,
seldom, frequently, never and rarely are some of the examples.
Examples:
1. We attend mass weekly.
2. My family always prays that this pandemic ends soon.
