Present Tense - Third Person
English Grammar Rules


Normally in the present tense we add S to the end of the verb in the 3rd person (He, She, It).
Verb
3rd Person
Speak
Speaks
Play
Plays
Give
Gives
Make
Makes
  • He speaks three languages.
  • She drinks coffee every morning.
  • My dog hates my cat.
Irregular Verbs
Irregular verbs in English in the present tense follow very simple rules. The only change that is made to these verbs is in the third person – for He, She or It.
1. If the verb ends in SSXCHSH or the letter O, we add + ES in the third person.
Verb
3rd Person
Kiss
Kisses
Fix
Fixes
Watch
Watches
Crash
Crashes
Go
Goes
  • A mechanic fixes cars.
  • She watches soap operas every afternoon.
  • He kisses his wife before he goes to work.


2. If the verb ends in a Consonant + Y, we remove the Y and + IES in the third person.
Verb
3rd Person
Carry
Carries
Hurry
Hurries
Study
Studies
Deny
Denies
  • Isabel studies every night.
  • The baby cries all the time.
  • He denies all responsibility.


Negative Sentence
To form the negative we use the auxiliary do not. Again, the only variation occurs in the 3rd person where we usedoes not.

Positive
Negative
I talk
I do not talk
She talks
She does not talk
You sleep
You do not sleep
He sleeps
He does not sleep
Carol studies
Carol does not study
We study
We do not study


In the negative, the main verb is always in the bare infinitive (without TO). It doesn't change for the third person. We don't put an S on the end of the verb in the negative form. In the examples above - talk, sleep and study do not change in the 3rd person.
  • He speaks Italian
    He doesn't speak Italian.
Remember: 
Do not can be abbreviated to Don't and Does not can be abbreviated to Doesn't.
