- Most verbs in English take a final “-s” to form the third person singular (loves, works, plays).

- Verbs ending in /sh/, /ch/, /x/, /o/ or /ss/ and an “-e” before the “-s” (teaches, washes, goes, does, fixes, kisses)

- Verbs ending in consonant + “-y” change “-y” to “-ies” (cry-cries, fly-flies, study-studies) and ending in vowel + “-y” they maintain the “-y” (play, stay, say)

- Have is irregular (have-has)

The normal word order in English is SVO (Subject + Verb + Object):

SUBJECT VERB OBJECT

I am Spanish

We have different services The spa costs fifteen euros

Children under 12 are free

This is the order in AFFIRMATIVE or POSITIVE.

For the NEGATIVE we use an AUXILIARY VERB and the particle NOT:

SUBJECT VERB 1 NOT VERB 2 OBJECT

I am not Spanish We have not got different services

The spa does not cost fifteen euros Children under 12 are not free

You do not speak French


We usually contract the form: I’m not Spanish

We haven’t got different services The spa doesn’t cost fifteen euros

Children under 12 aren’t free You don’t speak French

We use HAVE differently in BrE (British English) and AmE (American English): BrE: We have got two cats/ Have we got two cats? / We haven’t got two cats AmE: We have two cats / Do we have two cats? / We don’t have two cats YES/NO questions: - to be, to have…: verb +subject + object Example: He is Spanish ------------ Is he Spanish? You have got a cat ----- Have you got a cat? - other verbs: auxiliary + subject + verb +object Example: I live in Sant Cugat ----- Do you live in Sant Cugat? He plays football------- Does he play football?

The auxiliary is DO or DOES (3rd person singular) in PRESENT.
