AGREEMENT The act of agreeing. 1. Harmony of opinion; accord. 2. An arrangement between parties regarding a course of action; a covenant. 3. Law a. A properly executed and legally binding contract. b. The writing or document embodying this contract. 4. Grammar Correspondence in gender, number, case, or person between words. he indefinite pronouns anyone, everyone, someone, no one, nobody are always singular and, therefore, require singular verbs.

Everyone has done his or her homework. Somebody has left her purse.

Some indefinite pronouns such as all, some are singular or plural depending on what they're referring to. (Is the thing referred to countable or not?) Be careful choosing a verb to accompany such pronouns.

Some of the beads are missing. Some of the water is gone.

On the other hand, there is one indefinite pronoun, none, that can be either singular or plural; it often doesn't matter whether you use a singular or a plural verb unless something else in the sentence determines its number. (Writers generally think of none as meaning not any and will choose a plural verb, as in "None of the engines are working," but when something else makes us regard none as meaning not one, we want a singular verb, as in "None of the food is fresh.")

None of you claims responsibility for this incident? None of you claim responsibility for this incident? None of the students have done their homework. (In this last example, the word their precludes the use of the singular verb.

rases such as together with, as well as, and along with are not the same as and. The phrase introduced by as well as or along withwill modify the earlier word (mayor in this case), but it does not compound the subjects (as the word and would do).

The mayor as well as his brothers is going to prison. The mayor and his brothers are going to jail.

The conjunction or does not conjoin (as and does): when nor or or is used the subject closer to the verb determines the number of the verb. Whether the subject comes before or after the verb doesn't matter; the proximity determines the number.

Either my father or my brothers are going to sell the house. Neither my brothers nor my father is going to sell the house. Are either my brothers or my father responsible? Is either my father or my brothers responsible?

he words there and here are never subjects.

There are two reasons [plural subject] for this. There is no reason for this. Here are two apples.

Sometimes modifiers will get betwen a subject and its verb, but these modifiers must not confuse the agreement between the subject and its verb. The mayor, who has been convicted along with his four brothers on four counts of various crimes but who also seems, like a cat, to have several political lives, is finally going to jail. On the other hand, some words ending in -s refer to a single thing but are nonetheless plural and require a plural verb.

My assets were wiped out in the depression. The average worker's earnings have gone up dramatically. Our thanks go to the workers who supported the union.

If your sentence compounds a positive and a negative subject and one is plural, the other singular, the verb should agree with the positive subject.

The department members but not the chair have decided not to teach on Valentine's Day. It is not the faculty members but the president who decides this issue. It was the speaker, not his ideas, that has provoked the students to riot.

The word "implies" has several different meanings in English, and most of these senses of the word can be conveyed in the ordinary language connection of statements with "If then " In symbolic logic, implication is present for "If then " propositions which assert some logical or causal or other relationship. A. Implication is a relation that holds for conditional statementsthere are many types of conditionals: 1. Logical: E. g., "If all philosophers are thinkers and John is a philosopher, then John is a thinker." 2. Definitional: E. g., "If Carol is anemic, then Carol has a low concentration of erythrocytes in her blood." 3. Causal: E. g., "If you strike the match, it will light." 4. Decisional: E. g., "If you donate to educational television, then the company you work for will match the amount."

B. Material implication is the weakest common meaning for all types of "If then " statements. 1. By convention the first part of the conditional is termed theantecedent (also less often called the "implicans" or the "protasis"), and the second part of the conditional is theconsequent (less often termed the "implicate" or "apodosis"). E. g., in the conditional statement "If you study diligently, then you might see positive results," the antecedent is "You study diligently" and the consequent is "You might see positive results." 2. In general, the weakest common meaning is that (1) if the antecedent and consequent of a conditional statement are true, then the conditional as a whole is true, but (2) if the antecedent is true and the consequent is false, then the conditional as a whole is false.
