English is one of these, in some cases. E.g. "cats chase mice" while "my cat chases mice". IIRC there are similar whole-sentence complications with tense too, but my brain isn't caffeinated enough to think of them at the moment.
- tgv 2y agoThat's rather simple agreement. The languages I know of are compatible with that. They either have a similar or simpler number agreement, at least for the third person. English has better examples, e.g. a vs an. If you template some text, you need to write agreement rules for that: "Are you interested in [a/an] {product}?"
