  The subject pronouns, like she or it or they, refer to specific, definite persons, places, or things. However, indefinite pronouns do not refer to a specific person or place or to definite things. Indefinite pronouns, such as the words some, half, most, and all, may take either singular or plural verbs, depending on their meaning in the context of the sentence. If these words tell how much of something is meant, the verb is singular; but if they tell how many of something is meant, the verb is plural. Students should not confuse the words with the words each, either, and neither. Those three words always require a singular verb.

  One of the most common causes of errors in identifying the subject of a sentence is confusing it with a noun used as the object of a preposition. This kind of error can also lead to mistakes in subject–verb agreement. To avoid making this type of mistake or confusion, you first must learn to recognize prepositions and prepositional phrases. Prepositions are the short words in our language that show the position or relationship between one word and another.
