La terminación en -s de la tercera
persona.
Aunque la conjugación en inglés es muy sencilla,
porque solo hay dos formas de cada verbo, debes
recordar que las terceras personas (he/she /it)
añaden una -s
I live here
He live
s here
Verbos que añaden + es
Si acaban en -o, sh, ch, x, z añadiremos una e antes
de la terminación en -s
GO GOES
WASH WASHES
MIX MIXES
Ejemplo: He goes climbing every Saturday
Verbos que acaban en -y
Si el verbo en infinitivo acaba en consonante+ y,
cambiaremos la terminación por IES
We study here
He studies here
Pero solo si hay una consonante, si hay una vocal no
se cambia nada.
We buy clothes
He buys clothes

Estructura interrogativa del
presente simple.
La estructura interrogativa del presente simple es
distinta según los verbos
1) to be, have got, can y algunos otros verbos,
llamados defectivos, se conjugan como en
español, simplemente cambiando de sitio el
verbo.
Ejemplos
He is a teacher
Is he a teacher?
I can speak Chinese
Can you speak Chinese?
We have got a garden
Have you got a garden?
Otros verbos
Pero la mayoría de los verbos necesitan conjugarse
en interrogativa y en negativa con un auxiliar, que
en presente, es
DO (I , you, we, they)
DOES (he, she, it)
El auxiliar DO
El auxiliar no aporta significado, pero hace posible
la estructura:
She studies here Ella estudia aquí
Does she study here? ¿Estudia ella
aquí?
She does not study here Ella no estudia
aquí.
Uso del auxiliar
Observa que cuando usamos does, el verbo
principal ya no tiene la S de la tercera persona,
porque aparece en el auxiliar.
He do
esn't know the answer
No he doesn't knows the answer
Do como verbo y auxiliar
Observa también que DO puede aparecer dos veces
en la misma frase, una como verbo y otra como
auxiliar
What does your mother do? She is an
actress
Do you often do the shopping?
