  If nouns show number by adding -s to the plural, what do verbs do to show whether a verb is singular or plural? A long time ago, English verbs had many different endings for this purpose, but most of those endings have been dropped. Today most English verbs look the same whether the subject is singular or plural: “I talk,” “we talk,” “the men talk,” “I remembered,” “they remembered,” “the class remembered,” and so on. However, there is one place where English verbs have kept a special ending to show number. That special ending is also an -s, and the place where it is added is in the present-tense singular with the subject pronouns he, she, it and with any singular noun that could replace any of these pronouns

  • Se agrega “s” al verbo, si el pronombre no es he, she o it
