Read the following line from the song “If I Were a Boy” by Beyoncé:If I were a boyEven just for a dayI'd roll out of bed in the morningAnd throw on what I wanted then goDrink beer with the guysAnd chase after girlsI'd kick it with who I wantedAnd I'd never get confronted for it'Cause they'd stick up for meAccording to English grammar rules, the use of “were” instead of “was” in this sentence is explained by:
- A“Were” is used in informal speech as a stylistic variation of “was”, without grammatical justification.
- B“Was” should be used because “I” is a singular subject and follows the rule of subject-verb agreement.
- C“Were” is used as the plural form of the verb “to be” and is incorrect when referring to a singular subject like “I”.
- D“Were” is the correct form in the subjunctive mood, used to express hypothetical or unreal situations, regardless of the subject.
