Present Simple, -s ending

by Sabina October 22, 2022

You know the usage of the Present Simple Tense.

Let’s focus on the next step, the -s ending.

You should remember that each tense has some ending which we add to verbs. The Present Simple tense takes the -s ending.

BUT only the third person singular (he, she, it) takes the -s ending.

Do this exercise and check if you understand this rule.

Hi, I’m Sabina and I hope you find my site useful. I’m Polish and I have a Master’s degree in English and Translation. I’ve been teaching English for nearly twenty years. I’ve worked with different kinds of students, primary school children, high school students, adults, business people and also retired ones. What I like most is help in preparation for certificates and school final exams. I try to create my own materials, especially grammar and vocabulary exercises, so that they are suitable for personal needs. That’s why the idea for this site was born. I hope that everyone who visits this place will find something interesting and helpful.
