Integrated Grammar Practice 9, English Communicative, Class 10




Subject-Verb Agreement
- Subject-verb agreement is a crucial grammar rule that states that the subject and verb in a sentence must agree in number.
- Singular subjects require singular verbs, while plural subjects require plural verbs.
- For example, "The dog barks" is correct, while "The dog bark" is incorrect due to a mismatch in subject-verb agreement.




Modifiers
- Modifiers are words or phrases that provide additional information about a subject or action in a sentence.
- It is important to place modifiers next to the words they are modifying to avoid confusion.
- For instance, "She only eats vegetables" conveys a different meaning than "She eats only vegetables" due to the placement of the modifier "only."




Pronouns
- Pronouns are words that replace nouns in a sentence to avoid repetition.
- It is important to ensure that pronouns agree in number and gender with the nouns they replace.
- For example, "He gave her the book" uses pronouns that agree with the nouns they replace.




Tenses
- Tenses indicate the time of an action in a sentence (past, present, or future).
- It is crucial to maintain consistency in tense throughout a sentence or paragraph.
- Mixing tenses can lead to confusion for the reader and disrupt the flow of the text.

By following these rules and understanding the basics of subject-verb agreement, modifiers, pronouns, and tenses, students can enhance their English language skills and improve their writing proficiency.
