Exercise 1: Fill in the blanks with the appropriate verb form

Subject-Verb Agreement in Swahili grammar is a critical concept that emphasizes that the verb in a sentence must accord with its subject, just like in English. In Swahili, verbs have prefixes that must agree with the subject nouns or pronouns in the sentence. The variations in subject-verb agreement are observed based on tense, person, number, and noun classes which make Swahili a fascinating language to learn.
