(Megan and I) are going to the library. = We ARE going to the library. Megan and I = WE
WE + "BE" = WE ARE. (Never ever different).

That is probably the most elementary grammar there is.
These verbs are the first thing most of us teach our students. I don �t mean to be rude - but I sure hope you know this.
Present tense
Singular 1st person - I am 2nd person - you are 3rd person - he, she, it is
Plural 1st person - we are
2nd person - you(all) are
3rd person - they are

Now, let �s practise! Choose the correct option: Megan and you (are-is-am) not teachers.

The correct or more frequently used form is "are", but with the "Rule of Proximity" you can use also "am". |
