Should I Use "Exist", Or "Exists", In This Sentance?

[Ariel Schnee]

Should I use "exist", or "exists", in this sentence?

"The vampires who exist today are hybrids of vampires, and succubi."

Is that right? Or should it be this?

"The vampires who exists today are hybrids of vampires, and succubi."

I'm writing a fictional story, and just can't figure out which word to use. Also, should I have a comma there? My friend says "No.", but I was taught to put commas in places like that.

So...

Can y'all help me out here now?

Should I use "exist", or "exists" no comma here in this sentence?

"The vampires who exist today are hybrids of vampires, and succubi." :tick:

Is that right no question mark here or should it be this?

"The vampires who exists today are hybrids of vampires, and succubi." :cross:

I'm writing a fictional story, and just can't figure out which word to use. Also, should I have a comma [STRIKE]there[/STRIKE] before "and succubi"? My friend says "No no full stop here" no comma here but I was taught to put commas in places like that.

Welcome to the forum. :hi:

Note my corrections above. "Exist" is correct because the relevant noun is plural - "vampires". There is no need for a comma - the vampires are a hybrid of two things (vampires and succubi) and those two things should be joined simply with "and".

By the way, you misspelled "sentence" in your title. Also, there was no need to capitalise anything except the first and second words of your title and you didn't need either of the commas.

Right. When you list more than two things (vampires, succubi, and golfers), then use commas.
