Tip: explain why the wrong answers are wrong. Would definitely clear some confusion with some students.

Jay Sweazy 29 is not that bad marks,is it?

[@SomberSora]

@@sandeepkhanal5468 Not at all, a 29 is easily enough for scholarships. I would push for a 30+ if possible, however.

sandeep khanal - no! The average is a 20-21 so a 29 is great!

How was your score a 14...

Wish my act english was as good as my math and science

[@upthatvote4747]

I think this women is the best help I've had in months

[@oksanagermakovski8080]

To Divine Rod: It's easy. Take a sentence and ask "who does what?" The "who" would be a subject. The "does what" is a predicate. The skyscraper rises over the river. Who/what does what? The skyscraper does something. The skyscraper is a subject. Does what? Rises. Rises is a predicate.A bit harder now. Over the river a skyscraper rises. We have two nouns. Which I c a subject? Who does what? The river does nothing. The skyscraper does - it rises. The skyscraper is a subject (again).Hope it helps unless you are talking about more confusing examples.

Little tip for people that got confused on verb agreement stuff. Usually the subject has “the” before the subject, not counting the Matt and his friend sentence she showed.

Jesus I just came from an ACT video that a guy made and not a SINGLE comment was about his appearance, what's wrong with you guys?

[@HandleDisliker]

I think it's just because the "like-a-guy" group/mentality tends to be publicly shunned in the internet society, while "flirty" comments have been accepted due to the fact that a lot of females tend to like the attention flirting gives. Why that is, I don't know.

Do you have a lisp?

[@Inktron]

13:43 just so y'all know this is now incorrect(as it's from 2015). The word "their" now has the added definition of "belonging to or associated with a person of unspecified sex." So the sentence would be grammatically correct.

[@Thetrurth]

It’s informative video for me. Please I have question which I am not finding any excuses for use comma with no coordinating in some example. These sentences I cited from email which I have received from yahoo news , so it must be corrected I guess. Please , can you tell me what the excuses here for not using any coordinating conjunction here ? 1- A San Diego grand jury indicted the Hunters for allegedly using campaign accounts to pay for their children's private school tuition, lavish travel including restaurant meals that frequently cost hundreds of dollars. 2-The indictment alleges the Hunters lied about how the money was spent, with the couple saying it went to charity or campaign events when prosecutors said it was really used for groceries, restaurant meals and clothing. 3-Hunter appeared to blame his wife for the violations in an interview with Fox News last year, saying he gave Margaret power of attorney when he was deployed to Iraq as a marine in 2003, and that she oversaw his campaign finances.

[@josephrikers1111]

Why does Sam’s dvd get an apostrophe ? Isn’t the apostrophe’s s standing in for is? In which to me wouldn’t make sense.

[@yeahok9082]

at 13:57 please someone tell me,,, cant his/her be replaced with their so it would still be correct?

[@Serene.lovess]

Someone is singular. His or her is singular. - Pronoun- noun agreement Their is plural. You need a plural subject/noun. - goes back to pronoun- noun agreement. Hoped that helped! 👌🏽

It's= it is, it has, it was

[@robbyburns5822]

it was = 'twas

[@justinscott6049]

Anything that comes after "of" can't be the subject. Not knowing this will make the subject verb agreement questions seem like a guessing game.

[@amandalin6427]

Justin Scott omg yes

[@Groxseum]

So here's why commas can mess you over here, *face zoom in* , you see you actually need to place them before FANBOYS, so then you have to *face zoom out* remember to use them.

do well on ur ACT why does the year matter?

[@allisonhook6101]

I know you said that the act never uses a comma with the "and" situation. Ex I like beans, cheese, and, fruit too. I like beans, cheese, and fruit too. But the last time I took the act I found a problem like this. I don't understand which would be correct

Always go for the comma being there if you must choose.

The game was over. But my friend refused to leave before getting Lebron's autograph. Are these both sentences? A sentence can start with but?

[@carsonchiem145]

A better way to rephrase would be "The game was over, but my friend refused to leave before getting Lebron's autograph." The word 'but' normally comes after a comma because it acts as a break in the sentence flow. Hope this helps
