Question German speakers - wanna do me a quick favor?

Hey everybody, sorry for not having stopped by in quite a while.

Anyway, as the title says, I'm calling the German speaking Downs members: I'm working on a university paper on tricky cases of German grammar. What you could do to help me out really quick is fill out a short, easy-click survey on some examples I've put up. I promise it'll only take a few minutes. Thanks very much for helping me out here! Of course I'd also be very grateful if you wanted to forward the survey to anyone else to fill out.
-Sharkey

On to the survey: Subject-predicate-agreement - Subjekt-Prädikat-Kongruenz

Hmm.. I wish I could've done some more German at school, ah well, I had to chose between Latin, Greek, French and German... I chose Latin and Greek and I don't regret my choice

I do understand about 60-80% of when I read something random in German though... Looks a lot like my native language, which is Dutch....
