  4. The subject and verb should match. A plural subject requires a plural form of the verb, singular to singular. "He is blond." "They are blond." "Robert and Elizabeth are brother and sister." "Robert is Elizabeth's brother." Is is singular, are is plural. In these examples, "Victor plays the piano..." is correct. If it was "They play the piano...", "plays" would be wrong.
