    Subject-Predicate-Agreement atau Subject-Verb-Agreement

    Subject-Predicate-Agreement adalah Persesuaian ( Agreement ) antara


    Subject dan Predicate nya.
    Ini inti permasalahannya : Jika Subject nya tunggal, Predicate nya jg hrs tunggal.
    Jika Subject nya jamak, Predicate nya jg hrs jamak.

    Berikut ini adalah 4 contoh Subject-Predicate-Agreement yg SALAH krn tdk ada


    Persesuaian (Agreement) antara Subject dan Predicate nya :

    1. The cat are in the cage (Salah krn S nya tunggal dan P nya jamak)
    2. The cats is the cage (Salah krn S nya jamak dan P nya tunggal)
    3. The cat drink water (Salah krn S nya tunggal dan P nya jamak)
    4. The cats drinks water (Salah krn S nya jamak dan P nya tunggal)
    Yang benar adalah :

    1. The cat is in the cage


    2. The cats are in the cage
    3. The cat drinks water (Jk S benda tunggal dan P kt kerja 1 hrs dg s)
    4. The cats drink water

    Catatan :

    1. Is, was dipakai utk subject tunggal >> The cat was in the cage
    2. Are, were dipakai utk subject jamak >> The cats were in the cage
    3. Jk kt kerja nya lampau tdk pengaruh alias tdk pakai s.
    >> The cat drank coffee (TOEFL hny mnjebak dg kt kerja pertama)
    4. Kt kerja Has dipakai utk subject tunggal dan Have utk subject jamak.
    >> The cat has four legs. >> The cats have four legs.

    Bagaimana TOEFL menjebak kita didlm soal2 Test nya dg
    Problem Subject-Predicate-Agreement ini?
    Ada 9 Cara TOEFL membuat Trik utk menjebak kita dlm Test :
    1.Memisahkan Subject dan Predicate jauh agar kita terkecoh :
    # The cat with colorful fur : brown, white, black at my home drink water
    A B C D
    Yg salah D, hrsnya drinks krn Subject nya tunggal The cat

    Hati2 Bisa sj yg salah Subject nya, tinggal yg digaris bawahi TOEFL yg


    mana :
    # The cat with colorful fur : brown, white, black at my home drink water
    A B C D
    Yg salah A, hrsnya The cats krn Predicate nya jamakdrink tanpa s.

    2. Kata2 berikut ini kl menjd Subjct mereka adalah tunggal :


    Someone, anyone, something, every, each, anything, nothing
    # Anyone who got score A in English are permitted to join the club
    A B C D
    Yg salah C, hrsnya is krn Subject nya tunggal Anyone

    3. Kata2 : accompanid by, together with, with, along with, as well as


    Tdk mempengaruhi Subject. Jk Subject tunggal Predicate jg tunggal.
    # Andrew together with Ann, Ali, John, his 5 brothers arein Peru.
    A B C D
    Yg salah C, hrsnya IS krn Subjectnya tunggal Andrew

    4. There is atau There was diikuti benda tunggal atau benda tak dpt
    dihitung >> There is books on my table ( Hrs nya a book )
    >> There are some water in the bottle ( Hrsnya There is )
    There are atau There were diikuti benda jamak :
    >> There are a book on the table ( Harsnya books )
    >> There is books on the table ( Harsnya There are )

    5. Some of, most of, any of, all of, none of kl diikuti kata benda jamak,
    mereka butuh Predicate jamak. Kl diikuti kata benda tidak dapat
    dihitung, mereka butuh Predicate tunggal.
    >>All of the students eats rice ( Hrsnya eat, krn Students jamak )
    >> all of the coffee are good (Hrsnya is, krn Coffee tdk dpt dihitung)

    Contoh Soal : Most of the water around the irrigation area are not good.
    A B C D

    6. Bbrp kata berakhiran S adalah tunggal (dihapal) :


    Mathematics, genetics, economics, measles, mumps (lihat buku)
    >> Mathematics are very difficult for most of students ( Hrsnya Is
    krn mathematics tunggal )

    7. Kata2 The number of kl jd Subject diikuti Predicate tunggal tunggal.


    Sedang kata2 A number of kl jd Subject diikuti Predicate jamak.
    >> The number of students in this class are good enough (Hrsnya IS)
    >> A number of students in this class follows a club ( Hrsnya follow )

    8. Jgn bingung, Collective Nouns jika jd Subject bisa diikuti Predicate


    Tunggal maupun Predicate jamak.
    Collective Nouns : Family, Organozation, Committee, group, army, dll.
    Contoh : The group in this housing complex are good in social activities.
    A B C D
    Yang salah C, harusnya is good.

    Contoh : The group in this housing complex is good in social activities.

    # The organization is still in online meeting with the Board now.


    A B C D
    # The organization are still in online meeting with the Board now.
    A B C D
    9. Hati2 kl ada Prepositional Phrase of Place didepan krn Predicate
    mendahului Subject nya. Jk Subject nya tunggal,Predicate nya jg
    jg tunggal. Jk Subject nya jamak, Predicate nya hrs jamak.
    # On the table stand my cat (Hrsnya stands, karena Subject nya
    tunggal my cat )
    # On the table stands my cats (Hrsnya stand, karena Subject nya
    jamak my cats )

    A B C
    beloved country.
