Find the incorrect part of the sentence:
Neither of the two brothers are trustworthy.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Subject-Verb Agreement: The word "Neither" is a singular distributive pronoun. When it is the subject of a sentence, it always takes a singular verb, regardless of the plural noun ("brothers") that follows it in a prepositional phrase.
Correction: The plural verb "are" should be replaced with the singular verb "is".
Correct Sentence: "Neither of the two brothers is trustworthy."
