STRUCTURE

Subject + Verb – 1^st form (add or don’t add s/es) + Object.

Note: Add s/es to the 1^st form of the verb (1^st form of the verb given in the verb list ) depending on the subject used in the conversation.

For example:

• Subject ‘I’ is always treated as first person in the English language and when adding a verb next to it, it should always be in the 1^st form of the verb without s/es.

Examples:

• I come every day.
• I sing
• I talk to the customers.
• I like chocolates.
