Present Simple: 3rd Person (video)

Look at this conversation. A policewoman is asking John some questions:


Where do you live? - I live in Wolverhampton.
Do you work in Wolverhampton? - No, I don’t. I work in Birmingham.
So, do you support Wolves, Birmingham City, or Aston Villa (equipos de la zona)?
(support = apoyar, o ser fan de…) - I don’t support any of them: I support WBA!
What does the policewoman tell (=decir) her workmates (=compañeros de trabajo)?
John lives in Wolverhampton but he doesn’t work there (=allí) because he works in
Birmingham, but he doesn’t support Wolves, Birmingham City, or Aston Villa. He
supports West Bromwich Albion!
Hablando de él o ella (persona, animal, objeto o algo immaterial) se añade ‘-s’:
….do you……?  … does s/he…? We eat  My dog eats
They don’t like football  s/He doesn’t like football. I go  s/He goes
Ahora, que más preguntas podemos hacer a Mary (preguntando por John)?
