Hi,
The first "Thursdays with ron" video talks about subject-verb agreement.
Ron says..."Things than can´t be subjects are: Objects of verbs, Objects of prepositions and subordinate clauses"
I think I understand that. However, then Ron gives an example
"Harder than anything else on the exam (was/were) the three questions at the end"
Ron explains "harder" is not a noun and it can´t be the subject.
I am having problems to understand that. I mean, in the same video Ron gives another example
"...What is much more difficult to determine (is/are) the reason for their decoration, the use to which primitive people put the caves, and..."
Ron says the subject here is "what is more difficult to determine"
is "what is more difficult to determine" the subject because this sentence is directly referring to a noun?
If yes, then I think I understand everything.
Hope my question is enough clear, thanks.
By the way, congratulations Ron for your videos. They are amazing
Carlos
