Have or has
I'm struggeling with two sentences here. Is it have or has, and why?
"And to some accounts, a huge amount of life in the ocean have yet to be discovered"
"He is almost 30 years old and have been shooting blanks ever since he got fertile"
Top answer
Use 'has', because the subject of each sentence is a singular noun: 'amount' and 'he'. If he's 'shooting blanks', you can't say he got fertile. Perhaps you mean 'reached puberty'.
