what do YOU think the answer is?

anonymous · Answer

@GirlgoyleH. you should remember that when two subjects are connected by not only . . . but also, either . . . or, or neither . . . nor, the subject that is closer to the verb determines whether the verb is singular or plural

anonymous · Answer

in this sentence:

Either Joe or I __________ taking pictures at the wedding.

"I" is  the subject that is closer to the verb " __________ taking", so the subject "I" determines the verb what you should fill in the blank (__________ taking).
