The third person singular is very special in the Present Simple because when we talk about he , she or it , we add s or es to the base form of the verb. But, remember, there are some rules for when to use s or es . Adding 's' for most verbs For most verbs, we just add s to the end of the base form of the verb. Examples: live → lives start → starts enjoy → enjoys rain → rains Adding 'es' for specific verb endings For verbs ending in s , ss , sh , ch , or x , we add es instead of just s . miss → misses wash → washes search → searches fix → fixes Verbs ending in 'y' If a verb ends in y , and the letter before the y is a consonant, we change the y to i and add es . study → studies carry → carries try → tries fly → flies Exceptions Some verbs have unique spelling changes in the third person singular form. have → has do → does go → goes
