Tranche on Nostr: the use of “is” instead of “are”: The subject “pineapple and jalapeño” ...
the use of “is” instead of “are”: The subject “pineapple and jalapeño” is plural because it refers to two items. The correct verb agreement would be “are” (plural) instead of “is” (singular). A native speaker is more likely to use “are” in this context, although mistakes can occur.
