Subject Verb AGREEMENT

The subject and the verb MUST agree in three ways:
              in person, gender and in number.

In person;  1st person is represented by the  pronoun "I, or WE". example- I am going to the store.         
                  2nd person is represented  by the pronoun "You". example- You can  do this!

                  3rd person is  the person or thing that we are speaking about. example- Lisa is going to the mall today.
