"Subject Verb Agreement"

In the pod-cast Grammar Girl states that subject-verb agreement is important for sentence structure. Subject-verb agreement is basically the body of a sentence and without it or with it being misused your sentece has no meaning. By being able to form good/ accurate sentences you can have good grammar which is essential in life.

An example of the importance of subject-verb agreement is say you are a constructor and you are working on a house and have all the materials you need but dont know where they go, you can't build the house unless you are able to identify all the proper locations for the items. This is the same concept as subject-verb agreement. You can not have a sentence without putting the subject and verb in the correct areas and have them correspond with eschother.

Another example is if you where to half do a job then you can not call it complete this is the same termanology as subject-verb agreement. You cannot conduct a proper sentence without all the resources in all the accurate places and have them agree.
