hello

OpenStudy (purple_pink):

sure

OpenStudy (eyesnapper):

Well, both the subject and the verb have to have the same number(in other words be single or plural) You and are are both singular, while you and performs, you is singular and performs is plural. Get what I'm saying?

OpenStudy (eyesnapper):

You kind of have to get used to understanding which ones are plural or singular, but once you know which is which, you just choose the one in which they are both the same(singular or plural)
