1. PRESENT SIMPLE
Por ejemplo: cogemos el verbo infinitivo 'to eat' = comer, y decimos algo como:
Yo como una manzana - I eat an apple
AFIRMATIVO
I eat Como vemos son todos iguales excepto la 3º PERS. del
You eat SING, donde le añadimos una –S y deberemos
She/He/It eats acordarnos SIEMPRE, ya que es muy común que se nos
We eat
You eat olvide!!!
They eat
Sin embargo, a esta 3ª pers. del sing., existen verbos que terminan distinto:
a) Los que se añade “-es” en lugar de sólo “-s”:
do does; go goes
verbos que terminan en:
-s pass passes
-ch watch watches
-sh wash washes
-x mix mixes
-z buzz buzzes
b) Los que terminan en “–ies” cuando un verbo acaba en “consonante + y”. La “y” se
convierte en “i” y se añade “-es”:
study studies
carry carries
