    Subject-Verb agreement is the how you conjugate the verb. Here is examples.

    the verb "to walk" would be conjugated like the following:
    "I walk"
    "You walk"
    "He/She/It walks"
    "We walk"
    "They walk"

    The subject is the fist part and the conjugation of the verb must agree with the subject you are using. So, I couldn't say "I walks to work everyday" because the conjugated form "walks" can only be used with the subject "He/She/It"

    I hope this helps! :)
