Si el Sujeto de la oracion es

He - She - It

se le agrega "S" al Verbo.

Si el Verbo termina en

Ch - Sh - Ss - X - Z - Vocal

se le agrega "Es" al Verbo.

Si el Verbo termina en "Y", esta se cambia por "I" + "Es", excepto en

Si el sujeto del verbo es

I - You - We - They

el verbo se escribe como su forma infinitiva, es decir, sin modificarlo.

  • Examples

    (El sujeto de la oracion es She, por eso el verbo play lleva "S" al final).

    Tom watches tv at night on Sundays.

    (El sujeto de la oracion es He (Tom), por eso el verbo watch lleva "Es" al final).

    My parents like fish and chips.

    (El sujeto de la oracion es They (My parents = Mis padres), por eso el verbo no lleva "S").

    (El sujeto de la oracion es I, por eso el verbo no lleva "S").

Sujeto + Don't – Doesn't + Verbo (Infinitivo) + el resto de la oracion.

Remember

I - You - We - They + Do Not/don't + Verbo Infinitivo + el resto de la frase.

Si el Sujeto de la oracion es

I - You - We - They

se escribe "Do Not" o la abreviacion "Don't" antes del Verbo, el cual se escribe en su forma infinitiva, es decir, sin "S" al final.

He - She - It + Does Not = Doesn't + Verbo Infinitivo + el resto de la frase.

Si el Sujeto de la oracion es

He - She - It

se escribe "Does Not" o la abreviacion "Doesn't" antes del Verbo, el cual se escribe en su forma infinitiva, es decir, sin "S" al final.
