On page143, under AGREE, Manhattan says that "Electrons are particles THAT physicists AGREE EXIST." is the right use of AGREE.
But I just cannot figure out why this sentence is correct.In this sentence, "that physicists agree exist" modifies "particles". But does "physicists agree exist" make sense?
Is the usage of "Agree+Verb" correct?
plz help~~~

Yup, it's correct! This sentence is basically telling you that "physicists agree that electrons exist." The phrase "physicists agree exist" is correct and it's basically telling you that physicists have come to a consensus over the existence of these particles called electrions.
