Summary/Abstract: When the mastery of the uses of the subject-verb agreement poses a problem, in particular, to the learners, (sometimes even to teachers in the teaching process), the tendency to evaluate and to want to renovate the grammar governing its rules of application is if relevant. Therefore, the use of linguistic explanations makes it possible to consider these difficulties from another angle. For a didactic purpose, this article is the revelation of the inconsistencies and inadequacies of the grammatical content related to the said language point in order to highlight the possibilities of beneficial contribution of the linguistic contents to the speeches to traditional grammar related to it. By means of a new principle of analysis, the value of applicability, it will be for us, as a first step, to establish the applicability value of three linguistic theories dealing with the agreement of the verb. But before, we will review the speeches that propose three grammars about this fact of language known for its difficulties of application and learning in French as a foreign language. From this new approach will result a renewed conception of grammar as well as more adequate remediation tools.
