14.1 Actions that people and things do

 

We use verbs to say what people, animals and things do. We use the simple present tense when we want to say something which is true at the present. Tense means time.

 

In the simple present time, the verb changes in a 3rd person singular. This means that he, she and it forms of the verb are different.

 

Follow the formula on personal pronouns. We add s to the verb read in the 3rd person singular.

 

Person Verb
1st person singular I read

 

plural we read
2nd person singular you read

 

plural you read
3rd person singular he reads

 

 

she reads

 

 

it reads

 

plural they read
