<p>Hey guys!</p>

<p>Would this be correct?</p>

<p>On the table SITS the book and the pen</p>

<p>or </p>

<p>On the table SIT the book and the pen</p>

<p>I would presume that its sit because the book and the pen are two objects but then again they can be taken out as singular</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

2

<p>The second sentence is correct. It is constructed as [Preposition] [Verb] [Subject]. The subject is compound or plural, therefore, a plural verb is required.</p>

3

<p>“Sit” is correct because the sentence features a subject-verb inversion and a compound subject (formed by “and”).</p>
