EngrBello: No need arguing... that's just ur opinion. lol...the congregation there is not a singular noun but a plural one.... consider this example now.. Our club is ten years old today(it attracts singular verb cos club there stands for just organization or its physical building and didn't perform any action) our club are holding meeting tomorrow (our club here now stands for the members and not just the organization..Also they will be performing action which is "holding meeting "that's why plural verb was used. Same way congregation (members are performing action which is " singing " it should attract plural verb and not a singular one... The question is even straightforward...Not confusing as other questions from notional Concord |

[quote author=Mobuoy19 post=61326107]N= remaining value. No----------------- 0 N/2 ----------------20 years N/4-----------------40 years ∴ it will take 40 years for the activity to become quarter of the original. bosses pls help solve these questions 1 a force of 20N applied parallel to the surface of horizontal table is just sufficient to make a block of mass 4kg set for motion. Find the acceleration when the force is doubled. 2 a vibrating string has a tension of 40N and produces a note of 200Hz when plucked in the middle. When the length of string is unaltered and the tension is increased to 160N the frequency becomes? 3 how far from a concave mirror of radius 120cm must an object be placed such that its erect image is four times its natural size Thanks in anticipation |

EngrBello: But they are performing an action that is why the answer become 'is' I am even thinking of something ,what if the question was like The congregation are neat The congregation is neat As for me I am going for the latter |

EngrBello: Sometimes, English doesn't go the way we think it would. There are different rules guiding different kinds of sentences. Ever heard of notional concord Lemme explain. Notional agreement, sometimes called notional concord or synesis, means applying subject-verb agreement rules according to the intended meaning rather than according to syntax. So we can pair a singular noun with a plural verb or a plural noun with a singular verb when the intended meaning calls for it: The school committee disagree about what to cut from the budget.(I know you'd have said 'the school committee disagrees about what to cut from the budget') Here, I want you to notice that the committee here refers to members of the committee and not committee as a compound word. People tend to concentrate on the exact word that they take to be the subject of the sentence when sometimes they should be looking at the thought that the word represents. Chufor Look at sentences critically before proffering an answer 2 Likes |

chufor: Let me put it this way. Sometimes, what you look out for is whether the subject is acting individually. If they are, you apply a plural verb. Maybe I should say, if the notion is one of a group of individuals acting individually, use the plural verb Eg The congregation is dancing(it's an individual action) |

Hardebaryor: E.g The Club is playing OR OR The clubs are playing sometimes, action words that stands as predicate don't determine the use of is/was/are/were What determines it mostly is the object state, either in singular or plural |

EngrBello: The police is coming The police are coming Which is correct?? I'm sorry to say this but to naive English speakers, some words sound absurd but are actually correct. You should go through notional concord |

NaturalWoman: You need to learn and go through it very well first... Uncountable noun is slightly different from collective noun Police is an uncountable noun(though,its also a collective and verb too) but its not like congregation and club Might sounded absurds to you....but your intonations matter |
