Do you use a singular verb with a collective noun?
Yes, you generally use a singular verb for a collective noun because the collective noun is treated as if it is singular. For example, "government" is a collective noun, and it takes a singular verb: The government is very stable in that country. "Team" is another collective noun. My favorite team is the Blue Jays. But it should be noted that British English sometimes uses a plural verb with a collective noun, where in American English, it's a singular verb. For example, British English would say "the government are..." or "the team are..." where in American English, we would say the government is, or the team is. So, do not be shocked if you are reading a British book and you see this difference in usage.
