Sentence Tanglers Grade 3

A double negative in a sentence is a sentence contains two negative words: He doesn't even know no one. My sister used to play.. um basketball.. but she doesn't no more. They don’t have nothin. But no-one didn’t answered.

Repeated information is another common sentence tangler. For example, "We're going to the park so since we're going to the park I'll bring my bike," is a sentence that contains repeated information.

Ain’t In speaking, many people use the word "ain't." In formal writing, however, this is considered an inappropriate verb form.

Ain’t For example, in the sentence, "I ain't going to clean my room," we can replace "ain't" with "am not."

Subject Verb Agreement When the subject is singular the verb must be plural When the subject is plural and the verb is singular.

Subject Verb Agreement For example, in the sentence, "John eat vegetables," John, the subject, is singular. Eat, the verb, is plural. We can replace "eat" with "eats."
