When is it appropriate to break the rule that requires subjects joined by and to use a plural verb

English
1 answer:
Artist 52 [7]3 years ago
7 0

The conventional rule is to take the plural form of the verb when two nouns are joined by the conjunction 'and'. However, there are exceptions. Only then can you break the rule.

When the two nouns refer to one thing only, then you can use the single form. For example: The president and the CEO joins the meeting today. In this example, the president and CEO apply to one person only. Hence, you use the singular form of the verb.
