As per Oxford Dictionary : NONE OF : When you use NONE OF with an uncountable noun,the verb is in the singular:none of the work was done. When you use NONE OF with a plural noun or pronoun,or a singular noun referring to a group of people or things, you can use either a singular or plural verb. None of the trains is/are going to London. None of her family has/have been to college. So , none of the bananas is / are ripe .
Hello Wes! I really enjoyed watching your interactive quizz -- concise, clear and to the point. I had so much fun watching it and, at the same time, reviewing some of the trickest advanced grammar rules. I greatly appreciate your dedication to help non-native English speakers master the basics of American English and, for that matter, cannot thank you enough. On a separate note, I truly hope the unexpected emergency that you recently experienced in your family has been resolved by now (prayers with you all and fingers crossed here also!). I hope you and your family stay safe, stay healthy and enjoy the remainder of the week. Best regards from a delightfully cloudy and chilly São Paulo!

It's really cool that not only do u test us but also u explain everything. I didn't make mistakes but brushed up on all the grammar that I slightly remember Keep it up, man
Awesome job! Some of those rules I know but some confuses me. I need to watch and pay close attention to this video more than twice. Thanks a lot for your great job.
I got all the answers right. But, I did not know the proper rules behind it. Dude, I just went with the flow of the sentence. 😂 BTW, I appreciate that you made me realise the rules.❤

It is correct to say "None of the bananas is ripe." In this sentence, "none" is an indefinite pronoun that is treated as singular, even though it refers to a group of things (in this case, bananas). Therefore, the verb that follows it should also be singular. The verb "is" agrees in number with "none," and it is correct to use the singular form of the verb "to be" in this sentence.
Thx teacher. Incidentally I am so frustrated that another teacher was teaching the use of future perfect tense WITHOUT explaining the difference with SIMPLE future. The way you are illustrating is as if you are correcting my grammar with AN EXPLANATION. Thx again
Gustav has a question: Why is the answer "I get so frustrated" when the verb is in present tense but the adjective is in the past? Frustrated has an -ed ending so he thinks it's in the past. -Ing endings don't exist as verbs tenses in German but he knows that in English -ing is a present tense. I don't know how to answer that question, I don't know why we native English speakers say "I am frustrated right now." He didn't know how to ask. He's too preoccupied by something going on, over which we have no control. We SHOULD have - the person is our child/stepchild, but we don't FTR I have days where I do worse at German for no obvious reason. So it's not only because infra emotional distress.
Hi Vicki. He should just think of them as adjectives. There are different sets, -ed adjectives and -ing adjectives (frustrated/frustrating; bored/boring; excited/exciting). Then just try to remember the rules that -ed adjectives describe the way a person feels and -ing adjectives describe a thing or situation. 👍
@@InteractiveEng Adjectives aren't in past or present, are they? I wasn't sure of this lesson myself; I mean it was hard even for me, so it really was advanced. Some of it I can't remember learning until I was in college, taking Written & Oral English Communication as a Minor.

It is correct to say "None of the bananas is ripe."
In this sentence, "none" is an indefinite pronoun that is treated as singular, even though it refers to a group of things (in this case, bananas). Therefore, the verb that follows it should also be singular.
The verb "is" agrees in number with "none," and it is correct to use the singular form of the verb "to be" in this sentence.
