The third person singular
in present simple
• We add –s to the verb to form the third person
singular (he, she, it).
He / she / it + Verb + S
I drink – he drinks I run – she runs
BUT
• We add –es to verbs that end in –ss, -sh, -ch, -x, -o.
I watch – he watches

• With verbs ending in consonant + y, we change the –


y to –ies.
I cry – he cries
• With verbs ending in vowel + y, we just add –s as
usual.
I say – she says

Exception:
• The verb to have changes its forms as follows:
I have two sisters and two brothers. But she has one
sister and two brothers.
I have = he / she / it has
• In the interrogative forms, we use "does".
"Does she go to school?"

• Verbs never take an "s" in the the negative and
interrogative forms.
Does he speak German?
She doesn't like ice cream.
