What subject/verb agreement rule makes the following sentence correct? “I was amazed at his equanimity in the face of danger.”

English

Answer:

The rule which states that if a verb is in past tense, then its subject should be in past tense too and if it's in present tense, the subject should also be in present tense.

“I was amazed at his equanimity in the face of danger.”

The verb "was" is in past tense so is the subject "amazed".

Explanation:

A simple subject-verb agreement definition says that the subject of the sentence and the verb of the sentence must be in agreement in number/tense.

If the sentence is written like this

“I am amaze at his equanimity in the face of danger.”

If the verb "was" is replaced by "am" and the subject "amazed" is replaced by "amaze", the sentence would become incorrect as it disregards the subject verb agreement.

Answer:

Explanation:

You are looking at something that is NOT medical, although if you are studying with someone who looks at everything as a symbol, efface also has a medical meaning that a teacher might tell you is a symbol.

The simple and best meaning for efface is to erase. That is what is happening in this passage. The gravestones are erased and the lies told about the person buried by their relatives, is removed. In its place are the true facts of at least part of their lives.

Can someone help me with an essay? I am terrible at essays
Simora [160]
The most important thing to eriting essays is that you understand the topic. You can also make an outline of how you want to set up your essay. The thesis statement should consist of telling the reader what the essay is about in only one to two sentences. The thesis is placed in the introductory paragraph. The introductory paragraph shod start out goving facts about the topics you'll cover in the essay. The very last line of the essay should be the thesis. The body paragraphs should start with transitions such as "to illustrate" and a transition for the next paragraph could be "to further demonstrate." The body paragraphs should consist of strong points that always stay focused on the topic. The conclusion paragraph simply wraps up the essay. It gives a braid statement on each of the body paragraphs and, I'm pretty sure it's the first line of the conclusion paragraph where you rephrase your thesis statement.
If you are still having difficulties, don't be afraid to talk with a teacher. Hope this helped!

Vika [28.1K]
It’s using the wrong your. Instead of using “Sally I need you to sit still while I trim YOUR bangs, Sophia ordered.” You’re means you are. Your means belonging to or associated to the person that the speaker is addressing.
