Question

Either my wife or my children.....about my plan to buy a yacht. a) know b) knows c) has known d)won't know Пожалуйста с объяснением

Answer 1

Ответ:

a) know

Объяснение:

Когда подлежащие, соединенные or или nor, не стоят в одном и том же числе, то подлежащее, которое стоит во множественном числе, должно писаться последним, и глагол после него должен стоять во множественном числе.

Answer 2

The correct answer is:

b) knows

Here's the explanation:

The subject of the sentence is "Either my wife or my children," which is a compound subject joined by the word "or." When you have a compound subject connected by "or," you usually use the verb form that agrees with the subject closest to the verb.

In this case, "my children" is closer to the verb, and "children" is a plural noun, so you should use the plural form of the verb, which is "knows."

So, the complete sentence would be: "Either my wife or my children knows about my plan to buy a yacht."
