Which sentence uses a verb that agrees with its pronoun subject? A. Each of the ingredients in this omelet contain nothing harmful to me. B. Some of my friends argue about the rules of this game. C. Each of the cousins have eaten two slices of pizza. D. Have someone chosen the theme song?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ik it's not D, tho

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you think it is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmmm.... I think it's also B, but I can't decide which 1 is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No i think its a. Reason why is that the verb needs to agree with the pronoun subject.

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

I actually think its B.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why Kyan?

Awolflover1 (awolflover1):

D. "have" should be "has" C."have" should be "has"

Awolflover1 (awolflover1):

So those two are out.

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

I think for A, contain should be contains.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree with @Tootles143 I think A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think A. Thats all im saying.

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Well we are then at an impasse. XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you @AsiaJenell

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Each of the ingredients in this omelet contain nothing harmful to me. What is the verb here @Music_me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Umm... Is it contain??

Awolflover1 (awolflover1):

A is correct* My bad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the pronoun subject?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm guessing it's omelet

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In linguistics, a subject pronoun is a personal pronoun that is used as the subject of a verb. Subject pronouns are usually in the nominative case for languages with a nominative–accusative alignment pattern. In English the subject pronouns are I, you, he, she, it, we, they, what, and who.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, is the pronoun subject me? Or was I right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. I believe so. So is that agreeing with the verb?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AAH! I HAVE LAG!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So that would be the answer. :)
