You can find examples by googling each word or phrase, but it would be more valuable to you as a learner to try producing your own examples. Post them here and we will review them for you. The president ( with / as well as / along with his colleagues) has offered to resign correct:the president with his colleagues have offered to resign.

  • The president ( with / as well as / along with his colleagues) has offered to resign correct:the president with his colleagues have offered to resign.
  • The structure is simple enough: the part following the bold words is not the part of the subject that the verb agrees with.
