For most regular verbs, the third person singular form adds "s" and questions and negatives use "does." Verbs ending in s, z, sh, ch, j or zs form the third person singular with "es" instead of "s." Examples are provided of full conjugations in the positive, negative and question forms.

    Simple Present Forms

    Most Verbs

You run. We run. They run. He runs. She runs. It runs. I do not run. You do not run. We do not run. They do not run. He does not run. She does not run. It does not run. Do I run? Do you run? Do we run? Do they run? Does he run? Does she run? Does it run? Negative Question

    Instead of "s," "es" is added to positive, third-person forms of verbs ending with the following sounds: s, z, sh, ch, j or zs (as in Zsa Zsa). These special "es"-forms have been marked below with an asterisk*. Positive I rush. You rush. We rush. They rush. He rushes. * She rushes. * It rushes. * Negative I do not rush. You do not rush. We do not rush. They do not rush. He does not rush. She does not rush. It does not rush. Question Do I rush? Do you rush? Do we rush? Do they rush? Does he rush? Does she rush? Does it rush?
