1. Singular Subject:

   • Correct: The cat runs fast.
   • Incorrect: The cat run fast.

2. Plural Subject:

   • Correct: The dogs bark loudly.
   • Incorrect: The dogs barks loudly.

3. Collective Nouns:

   • Correct: The team wins its games.
   • Incorrect: The team win its games. (Note: “team” is a collective noun and is considered singular here.)

4. Indefinite Pronouns:

   • Correct: Everyone is invited to the party.
   • Incorrect: Everyone are invited to the party.

5. Compound Subjects:

   • Correct: The cat and the dog are friends.
   • Incorrect: The cat and the dog is friends.
