You are correct to point that out. If the original sentence states that “_______________ _______________ are used to express meaning and tone,” then it does imply a plural subject, and it should maintain the “are” verb.

So, correcting it with that context in mind:

A **compound subject** consists of two or more simple subjects joined by a **conjunction** such as “and” that connects the subjects.

**Literary devices** are used to express meaning and tone.

Thank you for your attention to detail!
