Either you or Miguel ______ leading the group.<br> A: are<br> B: is
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Either you or Miguel is leading the group.

Explanation:

When using compound conjunctions - either... or and neither... nor - we tend to feel like using a plural verb, which may be incorrect. Most of the time, the right way to conjugate a verb in sentences with compound conjunctions is in the singular.

<u>Something else that can be confusing in the sentence we are analyzing here is the fact that "either" is followed by "you". As we know, the right verb form for "you" is "are". However, even in this case, we should go with the form "is" because "Miguel" is the closest noun to the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is</u>:

Either you or Miguel is leading the group.

Madelin acclaims the sacrificial disposition of her mom when she went to see about the Swedish youngsters with diphteria at the cost of her own life, and of how she doesn't wish to remain at Morton College in the event that she needs to deceive her and her granddad's goals so as to do as such, and in spite of the fact that she can't help contradicting Emil's position.
