In general, in the third person we add 'S' in the third person.


                     Subject                Verb         The Rest of the sentence

               I / you / we / they   speak / learn       English at home.
               he / she / it          speaks / learns   English at home.


               The spelling for the verb in the third person differs depending on the ending of
               that verb:


               1. For verbs that end in -O, -CH, -SH, -SS, -X, or -Z we add -ES in the third person.
                    go – goes
                    catch – catches
                    wash – washes
                    fix – fixes

               2. For verbs that end in a consonant + Y, we remove the Y and add -IES.
                    study – studies
                    carry – carries
                    worry – worries
               NOTE: For verbs that end in a vowel + Y, we just add -S.
                    play – plays
                    enjoy – enjoys

                    say – says

               THE SIMPLE FUTURE TENSE
               The simple future tense is used for an action that will occur in the future.
               For example:
                    I will go.
                    He will see.
                    I will clean the window.

                    They will clean the window.

               Forming the Simple Future Tense-
               "Will/shall" + [base form of the verb]
                    He will jump.
               NOTE:

               Shall is used with only I and We.
               Will is used with all the nouns and pronouns.
