For most subjects like <span data-no-translation>I<\/span>, <span data-no-translation>You<\/span>, <span data-no-translation>We<\/span>, and <span data-no-translation>They<\/span>, you use the base form of the verb, for example, <span data-no-translation>I walk<\/span> or <span data-no-translation>They play<\/span>. However, for <span data-no-translation>He<\/span>, <span data-no-translation>She<\/span>, and <span data-no-translation>It<\/span>, you must add <span data-no-translation>-s<\/span> or <span data-no-translation>-es<\/span> to the verb. For example, <span data-no-translation>He walks<\/span> or <span data-no-translation>She plays<\/span>.
