Question
Which verb correctly completes this sentence?
They _____ replied yet.
A. hasn’t
B. aren’t
C. haven’t
D. isn’t
E. weren’t
Solution
The correct verb to complete the sentence "They _____ replied yet." is C. haven't.
Here's why:
A. hasn’t - This is singular and cannot be used with the plural subject 'They'. B. aren’t - This is the contraction of 'are not', which does not fit in this context. C. haven’t - This is the contraction of 'have not', which is the correct form to use with the plural subject 'They'. D. isn’t - This is singular and cannot be used with the plural subject 'They'. E. weren’t - This is past tense, and the sentence is in present perfect tense.
So, the correct sentence is "They haven't replied yet."
