00:00:00,050 --> 00:00:05,490
Hello, chicos! Today, we're going to learn about third-person singular.

2
00:00:06,309 --> 00:00:14,369
This is when you use the third-person pronouns, namely he, she, it, and they in singular form.

3
00:00:16,089 --> 00:00:18,530
Singular means only one person.

4
00:00:19,629 --> 00:00:25,210
The verbs that go with third-person singular always end in S.

5
00:00:25,210 --> 00:00:30,070
For most of the verbs, you just add s.

6
00:00:30,850 --> 00:00:33,729
Example, eat becomes eats.

7
00:00:34,509 --> 00:00:37,109
Run becomes runs.

8
00:00:37,929 --> 00:00:48,149
For other verbs though, the ones that end with s, sh, ch, x, and z, you have to add es.

9
00:00:49,950 --> 00:00:52,950
Example, box becomes boxes.

10
00:00:52,950 --> 00:00:56,469
Wash becomes washes

11
00:00:56,469 --> 00:01:01,810
There are also other verbs, the ones that end with Y

12
00:01:01,810 --> 00:01:06,730
Where you have to change Y to I and add ES

13
00:01:06,730 --> 00:01:11,010
Example, study becomes studies

14
00:01:11,010 --> 00:01:14,590
Carry becomes carries

15
00:01:14,590 --> 00:01:18,469
Now, let's see some examples

16
00:01:18,469 --> 00:01:27,180
What do you think this sentence is?

17
00:01:29,459 --> 00:01:31,980
She eats at half past one.

18
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,540
Remember, the verb eats has s at the end.

19
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:43,340
We do this because it makes the sentence sound correct.

20
00:01:44,540 --> 00:01:46,280
Imagine if there was no s.

21
00:01:47,019 --> 00:01:49,659
She eat at half past one.

22
00:01:50,319 --> 00:01:52,079
Sounds weird, doesn't it?

23
00:01:52,939 --> 00:01:56,859
That's why we always add s at the end of the verb.

24
00:01:57,819 --> 00:01:59,519
Let's look at another example.

25
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:02,480
What do you think this sentence is?

26
00:02:04,939 --> 00:02:08,199
He does grocery at quarter to four.

27
00:02:09,060 --> 00:02:11,060
What's the verb in the sentence?

28
00:02:13,060 --> 00:02:16,419
If you guessed do, then very good.

29
00:02:17,479 --> 00:02:20,000
Do is the verb and we add es.

30
00:02:20,819 --> 00:02:22,539
Because again, example.

31
00:02:22,939 --> 00:02:26,400
He do grocery at quarter to four.

32
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,599
It sounds strange.

33
00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:35,340
That's why the sentence is, he does grocery at quarter to four.

34
00:02:36,219 --> 00:02:38,879
Now, you guys try to make the sentence.

35
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,740
She mows the lawn at eight o'clock.

36
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,379
The verb in the sentence is mows.

37
00:02:52,419 --> 00:02:55,659
Now, for the last sentence, what do you think?

38
00:02:56,460 --> 00:03:02,800
She works at ten to two.

39
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:07,099
The verb in the sentence is works.

40
00:03:08,219 --> 00:03:10,580
Thank you so much for listening.
