3. PLURAL NOUNS RULES

* To make a regular noun plural, we add -s at the end.

➔ Cat / Cats
➔ Apple / Apples
* When a singular noun ends in ‑s, -ss, -sh, -ch, -x, or -z, we add ‑es at the end.
➔ Bus / Buses
➔ Lunch / Lunches
* singular nouns ending in -s or -z, require that you double the -s or -z prior to adding the -es for
pluralization.
➔ Gas / Gasses
➔ Buzz / Buzzes
* If the noun ends with ‑f or ‑fe, the f is often changed to ‑ve before adding the -s to form the
plural version.
➔ Wife / Wives
➔ Wolf / Wolves
* If a singular noun ends in ‑y and the letter before the -y is a consonant, change the ending to ‑ies
to make the noun plural.
➔ City / Cities

* Some nouns are written differently when they are in plural.
➔ Mouse / Mice

4. PREPOSITIONS OF TIME AND PLACE (IN, AT, ON)

A preposition of time is a preposition that allows you to discuss a specific time period such as a
date on the calendar, one of the days of the week, or the actual time something takes place.

AT -> clock times, holidays and festivals, and other very specific time frames including exceptions,
such as “at night.”
i.e: I’ll see you in the park at 5:00p.m.
IN -> months, seasons, years, centuries, general times of day, and longer periods of time such as
“in the past.”
i.e: My birthday is in december.
ON -> days of the week or portions of days of the week, specific dates.
i.e: See you on Monday!

We use prepositions of place to describe where is someone or something.

AT -> for a point or place in the map.
i.e: We are at the park.
IN -> for an enclosed space
i.e: My shoes are in my room.
ON -> for a surface.
i.e: The book is on the table.

5. PRESENT CONTINUOS

To make a verb a continuous one me just add -ing at the end. And we use the verb to be as an
auxiliary.

i.e: They are cooking (cook) a pizza. Negative: They aren´t cooking pizza. Interrogative: Are they
cooking pizza?
There are some rules. For example, if the verb has only one syllable and there is a consonant +
vowel + consonant, we double the last consonant.

i.e: I am swimming (swim) in the pool. Negative: I’m not swimming in the pool. Interrogative: are
you swimming in the pool?

When the verb ends in -e then it becomes silent.

i.e: I’m baking (bake) a cake. Negative: I’m not baking a cake. Interrogative: are you baking a
cake?

For verbs that end in -ie, change the ie to y before adding -ing:
i.e: She is lying (lie). Negative: She isn’t lying. Interrogative: is she lying?

6. PRESENT SIMPLE

Affirmative: To use present simple in an affirmative way we add an -s or -es to the verb only when
talking about singular pronouns (She, he, it)

i.e: She wakes up at 6:00a.m everyday.

He washes the dishes every morning.
The dog likes to play a lot.

When we are talking about plural pronouns then the verb remains the same.

i.e: They drink coffee for breakfast.

You drive to the work.
We exercise three times a week.
I like pizza so much.

Negative: We use an auxiliary to talk in present simple. We use Does not for singular pronouns
(He, She; it) and Do not for plural pronouns (They, you, we) and also with I.

i.e: She doesn’t wake up at 6:00a.m. everyday. They don’t drink coffee for breakfast.
He doesn’t wash the dishes every morning. You don’t drive to the work.
The dog doesn’t like to play a lot. We don’t exercise three times a week.
I don’t like pizza that much.

Interrogative: We also use the auxiliaries (Does, do) but this time without the negation. The same
pronoun rules apply.

i.e: Does she wake up at 6:00a.m. everyday? Do they drink coffee for breakfast?
Does he wash the dishes every morning? Do you drive to the work?
Does the dog like to play a lot? Do we exercise three times a week?
Do I like pizza?
