We have already seen the most common uses of Present Simple, now it is time to check a little bit of grammar.
In general, the basic structure of a sentence consists of:
SUBJECT + VERB + COMPLEMENT
The Subject: Is a person, an animal or a thing that does an activity, it also can be a presonal pronoun. (I, you, he, she, it…..)
Verb: Is an action.
The complement: It is a word or a phrase after the verb that tells you something about the subject, or the action that he does.
Another important aspect to consider is the type of sentences. they are:
* AFFIRMATIVE SENTENCES:
They respect the general structure of a sentence (SUBJECT + VERB + COMPLEMENT)
It is very important to remember that conjugation changes depending on the subject of the sentence.
When the subject is the third person (he, she, it) the verb CHANGES.
** Here are the rules when conjugating verbs with: he, she and it **
RULE 1. WHEN CONJUGATING MOST OF THE VERBS WITH HE, SHE OR IT, YOU ADD THE ENDING -s TO THE VERB.
Example :
1.- I wake up at seven o´clock in the morning.
Luis wakes up late on weekends.
2.-You think I am a very good student.
Susy thinks she is late for her lesson.
3.- We want to have brekfast now.
Jack wants to get a new job
RULE 2. VERBS THAT END IN -S / -SH / -CH /-X /-O. ADD THE ENDING -es TO THE VERB.
EXAMPLES:
1. -S
PASS
HELEN PASSES HER MATH EXAM
2. -SH
WASH
MARK WASHES THE CAR.
3. –CH
MY FATHER WATCHES TV AT NIGHTS.
4. -X
LARRY FIXES CARS
5. -O
STHEPANY DOES HOMEWORK.
RULE 3. VERBS THAT END IN –y.
** -y after a consonant …………………………….. C A R R Y
MARK CARRIES A BOX.
** -y after a vowel ……………………………………. P L A Y
