Kwa wataalamu wa Lugha ya kingereza naomba msaada wa kujibu swali hili

Wakuu hamjambo, msaada wenu kwa hili swali
Naomba msaada wenu juu ya swali hili, kama mjuavyo kingereza ni nyama ya tembo, hivyo kwa Mimi peke yangu nimeshindwa kupata muafaka wa lipi ni jibu sahihi

THE KING AND HIS WIVES__________________HERE
(ARE/IS. ( )

Toa sababu kwa hoja/ chaguo lako yaani kwanini jibu ni is/are?

Who is the subject in your story?

ARE

Kwasababu the subjects ni king na wake zake so tutawaongelea wote kwa pamoja (kwa ujumla wao).

Itakuwa THE KING

Naona itakuwa "IS"

Mkuu naona umekuwa upande wangu, na hata wakati wa mjadala huu wengi walisema jibu ni is kwa kuwa anayeongelewa hapo ni mtu mmoja ambaye ni king

Naona Are, maana ukisema is inakua tafsiri yake ina umoja wakt ni wengi, na aliongea hayo maneno ni mtu wa watatu akijajaribu kusema mfalme na wake zake wapo hapa. digba sowey,

Hapo jibu ni "are" kwasababu ya kiunganishi "and" kikichopo kati ya maneno; the king na his wives, kama utabadilisha hicho kiunganishi kikawa "with" hapo inawezekana badala ya "are" ikawa "is", kwasababu subject hapo anakuwa ni the king na hao wakeze ambao wanakuwa ni "wapambe tu" kama ingekuwa kofia ya mfalme au koti lake nk.

That's my take.

Singular ~is

Plural ~ are

Angalau mkuu umenifumbua kidogo

digba sowey,
the king and his wives = they

nikuulize wewe sasa... jee, "they" inafuatiwa na "are" au "is"?

utajaza!!

Firstly, you need to know what these linking verbs (is and are) serve in this particular sentence.

I think any linking verb put there tries to decsribe the state of being.

While they explain a state of being, that state of being can be two things. Linking verbs serve to help rename or re-identify the subject.

In this case 'The King and his wives' is a subject.

So I would go for 'are'

The King and his wives in this sentence are the subject ( compound subject) The conjunction (coordinating conjunction) 'and ' used here makes us use are instead of is.
