Parents give us life. A teacher teaches us how to live it,but my dad served as both.

oga parent is a sungular noun and a singular verbs will follow so it’s parent gives. U no even know anything self and u they correct person.



Go back to basic English knowledge. You're too "wise" to know the plural form of free morpheme "parent." When you add the bound morpheme "s" to that free morpheme, it leaves you with plural form of parent.

I don't need to argue with you, wisest King Solomon.

I think It should be "Parents give us"


I think it's the last line of the paragraph,

I. e, as, instead of Us

You are actually WRONG.
He is referring to his dad being a parent and also a teacher (his profession)

The mistake is he used "a plural subject with a singular verb" "parents is plural and gives is singular"

So it's "parents give us" or "parent gives us"

Remember when dealing with verb words ending with "s" are regarded as singular

parent gives not parents gives, parent is a singular noun. like pair of shoes, A pair is several entities
Many aspects of English were not taught in Secondary School, if you know how simple diction and phonics are, you will marvel. It's only those who attended Montessori or British Schools that could notice, what Nigeria Education system does for English Language is, open your textbook, read comprehension page bla bla, answer it and submit. That was what I did in my school for almost 10 years of English Language. I knew difference between ordinary it's and its when I wanted to write Jamb. In short, English Language syllabus needs to be reviewed. Ordinary comma can change English language sentence meaning.


Lol it's "a possessive pronoun"
And its "more like a short form"

We learn everyday.

English no be our father language
