• De acuerdo con el texto, some, half, most y all...

  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.

  • son conocidos en inglés como pronombres subjetivos
  • pueden aceptar verbos en singular o plural
  • funcional igual que each, either and neither
  • siempre van a tener un solo significado contextual

• De acuerdo con el texto, ¿qué información es correcta?

  If nouns show number by adding -s to the plural, what do verbs do to show whether a verb is singular or plural? A long time ago, English verbs had many different endings for this purpose, but most of those endings have been dropped. Today most English verbs look the same whether the subject is singular or plural: “I talk,” “we talk,” “the men talk,” “I remembered,” “they remembered,” “the class remembered,” and so on. However, there is one place where English verbs have kept a special ending to show number. That special ending is also an -s, and the place where it is added is in the present-tense singular with the subject pronouns he, she, it and with any singular noun that could replace any of these pronouns

  • Los verbos en inglés no distinguen singular del plural
  • Los sustantivos denotan número al agregar -s al plural
  • Se agrega “s” al verbo, si el pronombre no es he, she o it
  • En el pasado, los verbos tenían las mismas terminaciones
