							| (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". |  25 Jun 2012
