The spelling for the verb in the third person differs depending on the ending of that verb:
(La ortografa para el verbo en tercera persona vara en funcin de la finalizacin de ese
verbo)
1. For verbs that end in -O, -CH, -SH, -SS, -X, or -Z we add -ES in the third person.( Para los
verbos que terminan en -o, CH, SH, SS, -X, o -Z aadimos -ES en tercera persona.)
go goes
kiss kisses
fix fixes
buzz buzzes(zumbido-zumbidos)
2. For verbs that end in a consonant + Y, we remove the Y and add -IES.( Para los verbos
que terminan en una consonante + Y, quitamos la Y y aadimos -ies.)
marry marries
study studies
carry carries
worry worries
NOTE: For verbs that end in a vowel + Y, we just add -S.( Para los verbos que terminan en

say says
To make a negative sentence in English we normally use Don't or Doesn't with all verbs
EXCEPT To Be and Modal verbs (can, might, should etc.).
You will see that we add don't between the subject and the verb.
We use Don't when the subject is I, you, we or they(utilizamos el dont cuando es:
I, you, we or they)
When the subject is he, she or it, we add doesn't between the subject and the verb
to make a negative sentence. Notice that the letter S at the end of the verb in the
affirmative sentence (because it is in third person) disappears in the negative
sentence. We will see the reason why below. (Cuando el sujeto es he, she or it que
doesn't
lo hace poner entre el sujeto y el verbo hacer una oracin negativa.
Observe que la letra S al final del verbo en la oracin afirmativa (porque est en
tercera persona) desaparece en la oracin negativa. Veremos la razn por la cual a
continuacin)
Negative Contractions
Don't = Do not
Doesn't = Does not
I don't like meat (expression corta) (no me gusta la carne)= I do not like meat( no me
gusta la carne
There is no difference in meaning though we normally use contractions in spoken English.
(No hay ninguna diferencia de significado, aunque normalmente se usan
contracciones en Ingls hablado)
The following is the word order to construct a basic negative sentence in English in the Present
Tense using Don't or Doesn't.( orden de las palabras para construir una oracin negativa
bsico en Ingls en el Tiempo Presente utilizando Dont y Doesnt.
Subject
don't/doesn't
I / you / we / they
don't
Verb*
have / buy
cereal for breakfast
he / she / it
doesn't
* Verb: The verb that goes here is the base form of the infinitive = The infinitive without TO
before the verb. Instead of the infinitive To have it is just the have part.
Remember that the infinitive is the verb before it is conjugated (changed) and it begins
with TO. For example: to have, to eat, to go, to live, to speak etc.
Examples of Negative Sentences with Don't and Doesn't:
You will see that we add DO at the beginning of the affirmative sentence to make it a
question. We use Do when the subject is I, you, we or they.
(Vera que aadimos DO al comienzo de la oracin afirmativa para que todo sea una
pregunta).nosotros usamos DO cuando el sujeto es I,YOU, WE, or THEY.
When the subject is he, she or it, we add DOES at the beginning to make the affirmative sentence a
question. Notice that the letter S at the end of the verb in the affirmative sentence (because it is in
third person) disappears in the question. We will see the reason why below.
Cuando el sujeto es he, she o it, aadimos Does al principio para que se una oracin afirmativa
pero La letra S al final del verbo desaparece cuando es pregunta, veremos la razn a continuacin.
We DON'T use Do or Does in questions that have the verb To Be or Modal Verbs (can, must, might,
should etc.)(nosotros no usamos Do o Does en preguntas que tiene el verbo TO BE o los verbos
modales.
