It is worth noting that if the personal pronouns SHE, HE, IT, singular nouns or common nouns (dog, table, house), proper names (Maria, Carlos) used the verb undergoes changes according to the following criteria:
- If the verb ends in X, SH, CH, O, SS, Z must be added at the end "ES"
Examples:
Fix = Fixes
Wash = Washes
Catch = Catches
Miss = Misses
Go = Goes
- If the verb ends in different combination to X, SH, CH, O, SS, Z must be added at the end "S"
Examples:
Work = Works
Clean = Cleans
Know = Knows
Call = Calls
Send = Sends
- If the verb ends in "Y" but first has a vowel, you add "S" at the end
Examples:
Play = Plays
Stay = Stays
- If the verb ends in "Y" but before has a consonant, eliminating the "Y" and "IES" is added
Examples:
Fly = Flies
Study = Studies
NOTE: These criteria only apply in positive sentences in present simple
Negative sentences
Subject + auxiliary "do" or "does" + NOT + verb + complement its base form
Examples:

- She doesn’t watch TV at 9 pm
