14.1 Actions that people and things do

Jump to Comments


 

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.
