Agreement
While grammar is not as static a science as is typically assumed, there are 20 rules of subject verb
agreement that attempt to objectify part of the English language form. Most of the concepts of
subject verb agreement are straightforward, yet some aspects of singular and plural usage in English
grammar are more complicated.
Consider the second person plural pronoun y'all as it's used in the southern American dialect, for
example. Addressing a group of people in the second person using standard English is inefficient and
requires more words.
A sentence like I want to talk to all of you sitting at the table in standard English can be
accomplished quite simply in southern American dialect with the sentence I want to talk to y'all.
Consequently, the 20 rules of subject verb agreement will vary somewhat by dialect.
