Basic rules of subject-verb agreement: The verb must agree in number with its subject; singular subjects take singular verbs, and plural subjects take plural verbs. (see source content)
Agreement with compound subjects joined by 'and': When two or more subjects are joined by 'and', the verb is generally plural. (see source content)
Agreement with compound subjects joined by 'or': When subjects are joined by 'or', the verb agrees with the subject closest to the verb; if one subject is singular and the other plural, the verb matches the closest subject. (see source content)
Agreement with subjects joined by 'neither...nor': The verb agrees with the subject that is nearer to it; if both subjects are singular, the verb is singular. (see source content)
Agreement with subjects joined by 'either...or': Similar to 'or', the verb agrees with the subject closest to it; if one is singular and the other plural, the verb matches the closest subject. (see source content)
