Rules:

There are three ways to make the “S form”:

•by adding “s” to the end of a verb

(run - runs, sit - sits, see - sees, play - plays)

•by adding “es” to the end of the verb that

has a sibilant sound – ss, ch, x, tch, sh, zz

(watch - watches, guess - guesses, mix -

mixes)

•by changing final ‘y’ to ‘I’ and adding ‘es’

after a consonant +y

(study - studies, party - parties, fly - flies)
