Using He, She and It with the Present Simple

What do he , she and it do to the present simple tense?

Before learning about what he , she and it do to the present simple, we recommend that you visit our present simple page , first.

You might have noticed that when we talk about routines, or things which are generally true, sometimes a verb like watch , write or play suddenly becomes watches , writes or  plays .  But why does that happen?

It happens because the subject of the sentence is third person singular .  This means that the subject can be described with he , she or it .

So in any positive present simple sentence where the subject is he , she or it , we need to add -s to the verb.

Look at the table below to see how this happens with the verb ‘ to like ‘

Even if we don’t use personal pronouns as subjects, we still need to add -s.

He, she and it with the present simple

Presente simple: conjugación de la 3ª persona del singular

(Present simple: 3rd person singular form)

En el tiempo presente simple, cuando estamos usando la 3ra persona del singular (he, she, it) en la mayoría de los casos tenemos que agregar -s al final del verbo.

-come – comes

-travel – travels

-walk – walks

-It comes from France.

-He travels a lot.

-She walks in the park.

Pero en algunos verbos la ortografía cambia un poco más.

Cuando el verbo termina en -ch, ss, -sh, o -x, agregamos -es

• match – matches
• kiss – kisses
• wash – washes
• mix – mixes

Cuando el verbo termina en consonante + -y, cambiamos la -y por -i + -es

• fly – flies
• reply – replies
• study – studies

Pero cuando el verbo termina en vocal + -y, solo agregamos -s

• enjoy – enjoys
• play – plays

Los verbos be, do, go, y have son irregulares

Adding an ‘s’ in case of ‘he, she, it’

(rule for conjugating verbs in the simple present), table of contents – rule for ‘he, she, it’.

On this page you will find the following:

• Rule for conjugation
• Further explanations and exercises

When do you have to add ‘s’ to English verbs?

Generally, the conjugation of verbs in the English language is not very complicated. Whereas other languages may often have many different verb forms for all grammatical persons, most of the verb forms in English remain unchanged . Learners of English only need to be careful in the third person singular in the present tenses (which corresponds to ‘ he, she, it ’). In this case an ‘ s ’ or ‘ es ’ is added to the infinitive form of the verb (e.g. ‘to go, to drink, to see’ ). Compare:

• “Peter often speaks with his sisters .”
• “My friends play tennis.”

Regular forms

• basic form would be ‘ to like ’
• basic form would be ‘ to drink ’
• basic form would be ‘ to run ’
• infinitive ‘ to go ’
• infinitive ‘ to do ’
• infinitive ‘ to watch ’
• infinitive ‘ to fly ’
• infinitive ‘ to cry ’
• infinitive ‘ to buy ’

Special forms

• Here ‘ to be ’ is a main verb in the present simple .
• In this sentence it is an auxiliary verb in the present progressive .
• ‘ to have ’ is used as the main verb in the present simple .
• And here it is employed as auxiliary verb in the present perfect progressive .

What exceptions does the rule have?

As explained above the conjugation rule for adding ‘ s ’ in case of ‘ he, she, it ’ basically applies to all verbs in the present tenses . The only exceptions to this rule are the modal verbs ( ‘can, may, must’ , etc.). They are invariable and so never end with an ‘ s ’ – not even in the third person singular.

• The infinitive form is ‘ can ’.
• infinitive ‘ must ’
• infinitive ‘ may ’

The following explanations relate to the rule ‘Adding an ‘ s ’ in case of ‘ he, she, it ’ – conjugating English verbs in the simple present ’ and might be helpful:

Grammar is Easy – Simple Present – He – She – It

Hey guys, how are things?

In previous posts, I started teaching you Simple Present. It is important that you learn Simple Present because with this tense you will be able to make simple phrases in English and have short and simple conversations in English. With Simple present and verb to be, you can start doing that.

In this blog, you will find more stuff, ok? Don’t worry. But it is always important to share basic content before moving on to more advanced and cool things.

I showed you how to make affirmative phrases, negative phrases, and questions in the Simple Present. However, I only showed you one part. I did not write about how to make affirmative and negative phrases and questions with the following pronouns : he, she, it. You may be asking yourself: “why did teacher Prix do this?” The answer is simple: The post was too long! That’s why I decided to divide them into parts. If you read my previous posts you will see they are divided into affirmative and negative sentences and second post for questions. Now, to teach you simple present for “he, she and it” I will do the same! So here we go!

As I always say, many students have problems to make phrases in English. It is a little bit confusing depending on your language. The most common problem is to organize ideas.  To make phrases, we are basically going to need 3 elements:

Pronouns (person, object, animals, but in SINGULAR)

Verb (an action)

            Complement (words that will complete the idea of the verb/action)

In this post, the pronouns  we are going to use are: He , she and It    

He – masculine. John, Peter, Alex, Jack (In Singular)

She –  feminine. Mary, Linda, Jessica.  (In Singular)

It – neutral.  Objects, animals (In Singular)

Now that you learned the pronouns  we are going to use, let’s focus on affirmative sentences

AFFIRMATIVE SENTENCES.

IMPORTANT: For he, she and it, we need to change our verb. What is different? You need to add “s” to the verb. But ONLY in affirmative sentences. Let’s see some examples:

• John (he) love S sports

P = John    – Loves = verb/action    – Sports = complement

• Mary (she) need S to study

P = Mary    Needs = verb/action    – to study = complement

• The (it) cat drink S

P = the cat   – drinks = verb/action    – milk = complement

• My teacher speaks 4 languages

P = my teacher   – speaks = verb/action    – languages = complement

But, wait a minute….. Teacher Prix, only “s”? Nothing else?

Nope! Sorry guys! 😛

Let’s take a look:

If any verb ENDS in the letters  above, you need to ad ES.  Now, let’s see some examples:

• Alice (she) go ES to school every day

P = Alice     – goes = verb/action    – to school every day = complement

• John washes his car on Sundays

P = John    – wash ES = verb/action    – his car on Sundays = complement

• She teach ES History in the morning

P = She   -teaches = verb/action    – History in the morning = complement

Verbs that end in Y

In this chart, you see verbs that end in Y.  But pay attention! You will only change it, IF,  before the “ y” there is a consonant.   If the verb ends in y but before the “ y” there is a vowel (a, e, i, o, u)  then, you add only S.  Check the examples below:

• Alice (she) play S the violin every day

P = Alice     – play S = verb/action    – the violin every day = complement

The verb play ends in Y, but as there is a vowel next to it, you just add S.

• John studies French

P = John     – stud IES = verb/action    – French = complement

The verb “ study”   ends in Y  and before Y there is a consonant.  Therefore, drop (remove) the “ y” and add  “ies”.

What if my verb is not in the cases above?

 Very simple, just add S

Now we can move on to negative sentences.

NEGATIVE SENTENCES

Negative sentences with he , she and it  are very simple. Take a look at the structure:

P                   n                V                C

Person          Doesn’t         verb               complement

In negative phrases you always need doesn’t.   where? After your pronoun. Take a look at the examples below:

• John DOESN’T wash his car on Sundays

P = John     –   N = doesn’t     wash= verb/action    – his car on Sundays = complement

• Mary doesn’t work downtown

P = Mary     –   N = doesn’t     V = work (verb/action)     C= downtown  (complement)

IMPORTANT: In negative phrases with he , she and it , you DON’T NEED TO CHANGE THE VERB! Exactly, the verb is normal again. However, for he, she and it you need “ doesn’t” ok? This shows the phrase is negative, in the simple present and for the pronouns he, she and it

Now that you know how make simple present phrases for he, she and it, how about doing some homework?

Homework – I want you to give me your examples! Write down 5 examples of affirmative sentences and 5 examples of negative sentences. Leave your answer in the comment section

¿Cuándo tienes que añadir una ‘s’ a los verbos en inglés?

Generalmente, la conjugación de los verbos en el idioma inglés no es muy complicada. Mientras que otros idiomas pueden tener muchas formas verbales diferentes para todas las personas gramaticales, la mayoría de las formas verbales inglesas permanecen sin cambios . Los estudiantes de inglés solo tienen que tener cuidado con la tercera persona del singular (que corresponde a ‘ he, she, it ’) en el tiempo presente (present tenses) . En este caso se añade una ‘ s ’ o ‘ es ’ a la forma infinitiva del verbo (por ejemplo, ‘to see, to go, to drink’ ). Compara:

• “Peter often speaks with his sisters .” (Peter habla con sus hermanas a menudo.)
• “My friends play tennis.” (Mis amigos juegan al tenis.)

Formas regulares

• La forma básica sería ‘ to like ’ (gustar).
• La forma básica sería ‘ to drink ’ (beber).
• La forma básica sería ‘ to run ’ (correr).
• infinitivo ‘ to go ’ (ir)
• infinitivo ‘ to do ’ (hacer)
• infinitivo ‘ to watch ’ (ver)
• infinitivo ‘ to fly ’ (volar)
• infinitivo ‘ to cry ’ (llorar)
• infinitivo ‘ to buy ’ (comprar)

Formas especiales

• Aquí ‘ to be ’ (ser) es un verbo principal en el Present Simple .
• En esta frase, es un verbo auxiliar en el Present Progressive .
• ‘ to have ’ (tener) se utiliza como verbo principal en el Present Simple .
• Y aquí se emplea como verbo auxiliar en el Present Perfect Progressive .

¿Qué excepciones tiene la regla?

Como se explicó anteriormente, la regla de conjugación para añadir una ‘ s ’ en caso de ‘ he, she, it ’ se aplica, básicamente, a todos los verbos en el tiempo presente (present tenses) . Las únicas excepciones a esta regla son los verbos modales ( ‘can, may, must’ , etc.). Son invariables y, por lo tanto, nunca terminan con una ‘ s ’ – ni siquiera en la tercera persona del singular.

• El infinitivo es ‘ can ’.
• El infinitivo es ‘ must ’.
• El infinitivo es ‘ may ’.

Former Michigan House leader and wife charged with misusing political funds

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Prosecutors charged the former leader of the Michigan House and his wife with financial crimes Tuesday, alleging they milked political accounts for personal travel, housing and other benefits while the Republican lawmaker was raising millions of dollars from his powerful post.

Lee Chatfield misused various political funds, including his Peninsula Fund, which was not required to report the names of donors and served as an “unregulated slush fund,” Attorney General Dana Nessel said.

The operation was a family affair, as wife Stephanie Chatfield monitored her husband’s credit card balance and paid it off with cash from the Peninsula Fund, including $132,000 over a 14-month period, Nessel said.

In another example, Nessel said Lee Chatfield’s brother cashed a $5,000 check from a political fund in 2020 and returned $3,500 to the lawmaker ahead of a vacation, Nessel said.

Lee Chatfield’s various political funds took in more than $5 million over six years, including more than $2 million in 2020, which was his last year as speaker, the attorney general said.

“To call him, as many have, a prodigious fundraiser would not be an exaggeration,” Nessel said.

Lee Chatfield faces 13 charges, including conducting a criminal enterprise, which carries a maximum prison sentence of 20 years, and embezzlement.

Chatfield’s attorney, Mary Chartier, said she’ll fight the charges “each and every step of the way.”

“It took almost 2 1/2 years for the AG’s office to come up with charges. It’s going to be pretty flimsy if it took that long,” Chartier said.

Stephanie Chatfield was charged with embezzlement. A message seeking comment from her lawyer, Matt Newburg, was not immediately returned.

Nessel said there has been a proliferation of “dark money” political funds. She said the Peninsula Fund was organized under federal law as a tax-exempt “social welfare organization.”

“The Michigan Campaign Finance Act is effectively toothless, useless and utterly worthless as a deterrent to these crimes,” she said.

“The misuse of social welfare funds is not a new practice in Lansing. And while Lee Chatfield may have exploited the system a little bit more than others, no one political party alone has perverted or abused it,” she said.

Separately, there was a renewed call Tuesday to expand financial disclosure laws in Michigan.

“We won’t give up on seeking the type of anti-corruption laws that this state needs that most other states have,” Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a Democrat, said. “These charges really underscore the real necessity to more people in Lansing than ever before.”

The Chatfield investigation began in 2022 when his sister-in-law publicly said he had sexually assaulted her. He has denied the allegations and said they had a consensual affair. Investigators eventually expanded the case beyond those claims.

Nessel said there was insufficient evidence to charge Lee Chatfield based on Rebekah Chatfield’s allegations, though she praised her courage in stepping forward.

“Were it not for her we likely wouldn’t be here today,” the attorney general said.

Two people who were top aides to Lee Chatfield when he ran the House were charged last year with crimes, including embezzlement from nonprofit funds created for political purposes. Rob and Anne Minard have pleaded not guilty.

Hearings on Trump's criminal cases in New York and Georgia

Here are key takeaways from Fani Willis' stunning testimony

From CNN's Marshall Cohen, Devan Cole, Holmes Lybrand and Katelyn Polantz

The Georgia election subversion case against  Donald Trump and 14 of his allies took a stunning turn Thursday when two top prosecutors testified under oath about their romantic relationship at a hearing triggered by allegations of self-dealing that have the potential to derail the entire effort.

The all-day hearing escalated steadily throughout the day, culminating with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis taking the witness stand for a combative brawl with defense attorneys that drew several rebukes from the judge.

These are key takeaways:

• Willis' defiant afternoon: Things quickly went off the rails. Willis didn’t act much like a traditional witness on the stand and was more like a prosecutor, arguing with the defense attorneys, raising objections, making legal arguments and even having exchanges with Judge Scott McAfee . She even raised her voice at one point. This led to a few rebukes from McAfee. Willis repeatedly accused some of the defense attorneys of peddling lies – before and after the judge’s admonishment.
• Willis says she's not on trial: Willis seized several opportunities to defend herself. “You think I’m on trial,” Willis said, in her sharpest pushback of the day. “These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020,” she added, pointing toward the table of attorneys representing defendants in the criminal case. “I’m not on trial, no matter how hard you try to put me on trial.” She later slammed the defense attorneys, calling them “confused” and “intrusive.”
• When did the relationship start? On the stand, prosecutor Nathan Wade stuck to his earlier claim – in a sworn affidavit submitted to the court – that his romantic relationship with Willis began in early 2022 and that they split travel and vacation expenses. But Robin Bryant-Yeartie, a former friend of Willis and Fulton County employee, contradicted that claim , testifying that she had “no doubt” that the Willis-Wade affair began in late 2019. Notably, that would be before Willis hired Wade to lead the Trump probe in late 2021.
• Wade and Willis describe using cash for reimbursements: Wade and Willis have offered a simple explanation for why there’s essentially no paper trail to back up his claims they split expenses: Willis used cash .
• When did the relationship end? There was also a dispute over when the relationship ended, and whether it had any impact on the decision to seek the massive RICO indictment against Trump and others last August. Both said the relationship ended in summer 2023. Willis implied that the physical component ended earlier in the summer, but that the two had a “tough conversation” that fully ended things afterward.
• Huge distraction from Trump's charges: Nothing that happened Thursday undercut the factual allegations against Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, or the other GOP allies who are accused of trying to overturn the 2020 election. But the hearing shifted the conversation away from those allegation and away from Trump’s legal woes for now.

Trump reacts to Willis' testimony in Georgia

From CNN's Kate Sullivan

Former President Donald Trump on Thursday reacted to c and her lead prosecutor on the 2020 election case, Nathan Wade.

“FANI NEVER PAID CASH. SHE GOT FREE TRIPS AND OTHER THINGS FROM HER LOVER, WITH THE EXORBITANT AMOUNTS OF MONEY SHE AUTHORIZED TO BE PAID TO HIM. A GIANT SCAM. WITCH HUNT!!!”  Trump posted  on Truth Social. 

Wade and Willis pushed back against allegations from the defense that Willis was essentially getting kickbacks from Wade in the form of vacations. They said they split expenses and that Willis reimbursed Wade in cash for certain things.

Georgia judge says no ruling will be issued tomorrow in case over whether to dismiss Willis

From CNN’s Holmes Lybrand

Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee said he would not issue any rulings Friday after the evidentiary hearing on efforts to disqualify District Attorney Fani Willis from the Georgia election subversion case. 

“I’m not ruling on any of this tomorrow,” McAfee said in closing the hearing Thursday. “This is something that’s going to be taken under advisement on all aspects.”  

McAfee also raised the possibility of scheduling final arguments from the parties at a later date. 

“My goal, my hope is perhaps we can just close the evidence tomorrow, and we can take it from there,” McAfee said.

Willis woke up "ready to testify," bishop who prayed with her before court says

From CNN's Nick Valencia and Devon Sayers

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis woke up Thursday morning "ready to testify," according to the African Methodist Episcopal bishop who says he prayed with her before today’s hearing.

Bishop Reginald Jackson told CNN he met with Willis earlier this morning before court began to "offer her words of encouragement," and they prayed together.

"She seemed comfortable. She seemed eager to address," Jackson said.  "I had the feeling this morning that she was ready for this. It's been going on for over a month, these efforts to destroy her reputation,” he added. “She wanted to meet it head on.” 

When the bishop spoke to Willis this morning before court, he said he told Willis "to keep praying and that the people have her back. I really believe they do."

Hearing ends for the day and Willis will continue testimony Friday 

From CNN's Holmes Lybrand and Dan Berman

The first day of an evidentiary hearing over whether to dismiss Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the Georgia election subversion case has concluded after Willis and her top prosecutor, Nathan Wade, testified over their relationships and payments they made during vacations together.

The district attorney's testimony will continue Friday at 9 a.m. ET, with Willis starting with under cross examination from District Attorney lawyer Anna Cross.

Defense attorney Ashleigh Merchant, who is leading the removal effort, said she plans to call two more witnesses after that.  

Cross also said she had three to four witnesses to call tomorrow, which she estimated would take four to five hours.

Willis: "I'm not on trial, no matter how hard you try to put me on trial"

From CNN's Devan Cole

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis pushed back forcefully on Thursday as she engaged in a tense back and forth with a defense attorney seeking to disqualify her from the 2020 election interference case she’s brought against Donald Trump and others.

“You've been intrusive into people's personal lives. You're confused,” she told Ashleigh Merchant, an attorney for defendant Mike Roman.

“You think I'm on trial. These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020,” she added, pointing toward the table of attorneys representing defendants in the criminal case.

Willis says Wade made sexist remarks during relationship

From CNN’s Devan Cole and Marshall Cohen

In an extraordinary moment in court Thursday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis testified about sexist behavior from Nathan Wade, the top prosecutor on the election interference case with whom she once had a romantic relationship.

“It's interesting that we're here about this money. Mr. Wade is used to women that, as he told me one time: 'The only thing a woman can do for him is make him a sandwich,'” she testified as she faced tough questioning from defense attorney Steve Sadow, who represents Donald Trump, about whether their romantic relationship ended last summer because of the forthcoming indictment against the former president and his allies. 

“We would have brutal arguments about the fact that I am your equal," she continued. "I don't need anything from a man — a man is not a plan. A man is a companion. And so there was tension always in our relationship, which is why I would give him his money back. I don't need anybody to foot my bills. The only man who's ever foot my bills completely is my daddy.” 

The defense attorneys have zeroed in on the timing of when the Willis-Wade relationship ended because it's critical to their self-dealing allegations against Willis.

In court filings, defendant Mike Roman's team argued that Willis would be incentivized to bring an indictment because it would prolong the case, and keep the money flowing to Wade. And, according to their theory, back to her as well, through vacations and other gifts.

Willis said on the stand that their break-up had “absolutely nothing” to do with the indictment.

Fulton County judge admonishes parties to remain professional

Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee admonished parties in court on Thursday after heated exchanges between District Attorney Fani Willis and the defense attorney trying to get her removed from the Georgia election subversion case. 

“We all know what professionalism looks like,” McAfee said. “We won’t talk over each other. And from there, we’ll get through this.”

The judge took a brief break during Willis’ testimony after she raised her voice in court, holding up several motions filed by defense attorney Ashleigh Merchant and declaring: “It is a lie.” 

Merchant was asking if the top prosecutor she hired to investigate Trump had ever visited Willis “at the place you lay your head?”

“So let’s be clear because you’ve lied in this,” Willis said, pointing to copies she held of the filings. Willis, continuing to point at the copies, added, “right here, I think you lied right here.”

Willis details trips she took with top prosecutor in Trump case

District Attorney Fani Willis detailed vacations and trips she took with prosecutor Nathan Wade, who she hired to investigate Donald Trump and others for election interference in Georgia, saying she would pay cash for everything.

“When I travel I always pay cash,” Willis said of the trips with Wade, saying that she paid Wade back for certain travel and excursions during the trips.

Willis has been accused of financially benefitting from hiring Wade, who defense attorneys say paid for vacations for the two. The vacations, according to Willis, included trips to Aruba, the Bahamas Belize as well as Napa Valley where they attended wine tastings.

“He likes wine, I don’t really like wine to be honest with you,” Willis said. “I like Grey Goose.”
