Correct sentence: Find someone in the picture who likes to sing.

Why this is correct (easy steps):strong>

  • Take away the dots — they are not needed.
  • It sounds most natural to say someone in the picture (but "in the picture someone" is also understandable).
  • Use likes because someone is one person (singular). We say "he likes," "she likes," "someone likes."

Examples:

  • Find someone in the picture who likes to dance.
  • Find people in the picture who like to sing. (Notice we use like for the plural word "people".)

Try this: Look at the picture, point to one person, and say out loud: "She likes to sing," or "He likes to sing."
