English Language & Usage Asked on January 29, 2021
Can anyone help me with which of the following is the correct formulation?
The main driver for this is changes in the weather.
The main driver for this are changes in the weather.
Should it be "is" because "driver" is singular, or should it be "are" because "changes in the weather" is plural? How then do we decide which to use in these cases?
Thank you!

"Is" is correct.
The conjugation of a verb is decided by its subject. The subject is "the main driver," which is singular; therefore, "is" is correct.
