Apr 28, 2014 Not all subjects using and to connect nouns are plural, though. Sentence subjects that have multiple nouns connected by and that refer to a singular thing require singular verbs. Consider, Green eggs and ham was Sam-I-Am’s favorite dish. In this sentence, green eggs and ham is one specific dish in and of itself, so you use the singular verb was.
Hello, I am wondering whether sentence If I ever make any other mistakes, please do not hesitate to point them out to me. is correct. After reading a few topics here on a similar issue (unfortunately I can't give links unless I have 3 posts) I infer I should write If I ever make any other mistake, please do not hesitate to point it out to me. or If I ever make other mistakes, please do not hesitate to point them out to me. Am I right? If no, please correct me. If yes, would one of these 2 sentences sound better than the other? I hope I made myself clear.
