Subject–Verb Agreement Rules
1. If the subject is singular, the verb must be singular too.
- He/She writes every day.
2. If the subject is plural, the verb must also be plural.
- They write every day.
3. When the subject of the sentence is composed of two or more nouns or pronouns connected by and, use a plural verb.
- The doctoral student and the committee members write every day.
অর্থাৎ, Subject–Verb Agreement 'Number and person' নিয়ে আলোচনা করে, Gender এর সঙ্গে এটি সংযুক্ত নয়।
তাই সঠিক উত্তর হবে Number and person.

A
I appreciate your helping me with the project.
B
I appreciate your help me with the project.
C
I appreciate you helping me with the project.
D
I appreciate your to helping me with the project.
Rule:
-
Possessive adjective-এর পরে noun বা gerund বসে।
Examples:
-
Take your time. (noun)
-
My father never approved of her marrying a foreigner. (gerund)
-
Formal English:
-
Verbs যেমন appreciate, enjoy, mind, resent ইত্যাদির পর, যদি pronoun gerund (-ing form)-এর আগে আসে, তাহলে pronoun possessive form-এ থাকবে।
-
উদাহরণ: I appreciate your helping me with the project.
-
এখানে helping হলো gerund, এবং pronoun your ঠিকভাবে possessive case-এ আছে।
-
-
Correct Sentence:
👉 I appreciate your helping me with the project.
Option Analysis:
-
I appreciate your help me with the project.
-
ভুল, কারণ possessive adjective 'your'-এর পরে gerund বসা উচিত, 'help' নয়।
-
-
I appreciate you helping me with the project.
-
formal English-এ your helping (possessive + gerund) গ্রহণযোগ্য।
-
তাই objective + gerund ভুল ধরা হয়েছে।
-
-
I appreciate your to helping me with the project.
-
ভুল, কারণ possessive adjective 'your'-এর পরে gerund বসে, 'to helping' নয়।
