Do you know what a compound subject is?
not really, i am just trying to look for the non make sence sentances
OMFG NO ONE IS HELPING
Sorry, this stupid computer is being slow. Give me a second :~)
Okay well a simple subject is the main person/thing. Example: "You" went to the park. "He" cleaned his room.
D
no direct answers
so i will not take that as one sorry
Now a "compound" subject is pretty much the same thing but with two main persons/things. Example: "Steven" or the "cousins" has cleaned the garage.
sorry couldnt help myself :( and its ok but the answer is D just try to figure out why! ;)
@CoDsTeR9000 No direct answers please, thank you :~)

Haha its okay, cod:P Anyways deadpool, now we have to find verb that agrees with the compound subject. A verb is the action that the subject is doing.
