Definitions, examples, techniques, and tips

Verb Forms    Verbs can take different forms depending on the tense (e.g., "play" becomes "played" in the past tense).

Tenses:  
- Present Tense: "She plays basketball."  
- Past Tense: "She played basketball yesterday."  
- Future Tense: "She will play basketball tomorrow."

Subject-Verb Agreement    The subject and verb in a sentence must match in number. For example:  
- Singular: "The cat eats."  
- Plural: "The cats eat."

Quick learning tip:    To correct sentence errors, first identify the subject and verb, and ensure they agree in number and tense. Then, check for additional grammar issues like punctuation or word choice.
