Answer:

I believe the best option to be the third one: use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts.

Explanation:

The subject of the sentence we are studying here is "the dance crew". The word "crew" is singular and, because of that, we would expect the verb to conjugated in the singular form as well - "washes". However, since "crew" is a collective noun - it indicates a collection or a number of things or people -, there are two possible ways to conjugate verbs with it. If we think of crew as a unit, the verb shall be singular. But, if we think of it as the individuals who are part of, each one of them performing an action, then the verb shall be in the plural form.

In conclusion, if the verb is in its plural form - "wash" -, the best explanation for its subject-verb agreement is the third option:

use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts

Why do people have urge to be disrespectful even tho you didn't do anything wrong?
Lapatulllka [165]
Some people just react in a disrespectful way. When people are disrespectful, you just have to pause, take a breath, and be nice to them. As people say “kill em with kindness”. You know you’re doing the right thing by being nice. Ignore them disrespectful people cause they’re not worth your time:-)

Rewrite using a possessive noun. The novel by Charles
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Charles' novel

Explanation:

In "The novel by Charles", the possessive noun should be 'Charles' because Charles wrote the novel, therefore it belongs to him.

<u>When indicating possession, add apostrophe and the letter "s"</u> at the end of the possessive noun : 's

You would think it looks like this: Charles's novel

However, there is another rule. <u>When a word ends with the letter "s", you only put the apostrophe</u> and do not need the second s.

Charles' novel

Read the sentence.

This is an example of D. irony.
Irony is when you say something which is actually the opposite of what you think, in order to make a funny statement. So, this person said the doctor was unusually prompt (which means punctual, someone who always arrives on time), even though he was half an hour late.  <span />
