<span>The ungrammatical example is I is hungry, which is the third option here. This is ungrammatical because the conjugation of the verb to be is incorrect - I always goes with am, not is, which is used for third person singular only, and I is first person singular. The second example is the only completely acceptable one. The first and fourth examples aren't ungrammatical, but they are colloquial and should not be used in written form.</span>
The purpose of an antagonist in the story is to hinder the main character(s) from achieving their goal. The antagonist does not always have to be the main villain, but just has evil intentions to the main characters. A perfect example of this (in my opinion) would be Boba Fett from<em> The Empire Strikes Back</em>, he was not the main villain, but was hired by the main villain of the original trilogy to stop the main group from achieving their goals, and did have evil intentions towards them.
