Learn Spanish (Latin America): Un grupo de seguidores activos comparte el contenido. - A group of active followers shares the content.

The grammatical subject of the sentence is Un grupo, which is singular. When you have a collective noun like un grupo followed by a plural noun like seguidores, the verb can strictly agree with the singular collective noun. Therefore, comparte matches Un grupo.

Could I use the plural verb comparten instead of comparte here?

Yes, you can! Because a group of followers implies multiple people, native speakers often use the plural verb comparten. This is called agreement by sense. Both Un grupo de seguidores comparte and Un grupo de seguidores comparten are perfectly natural and correct.

Why does the adjective activos come after seguidores?

In Spanish, descriptive adjectives usually come right after the noun they describe. Here, activos describes the plural, masculine noun seguidores, so it takes the matching masculine plural form and follows it.

Why do we need the article el before contenido?

While English might just say 'shares content' without an article, Spanish often requires definite articles like el for direct objects, especially if it refers to specific content. Even when talking about content in a broader sense, Spanish strongly leans toward including the article.
