Anyone who learns English will be exposed to the expression "three singles" at first. What does this word mean? The person who asked this question must be a beginner. But even if most people understand this grammar point, there are still many people who make this mistake in spoken English. Today, I will give you an introduction to the system.
"Three singles" is the abbreviation of "third person singular". What is Third Person? Remember that "I" is the first person, "you" is the second person, and the third person is a third party other than you and me, "he", "she", "it", "they", "they", "they" and "they" all belong to the third person, and "he", "she", and "it" belong to a single person or thing in the third person, and when such words are used as subjects, they are followed by predicate verbs in the form of three words. So what we call "three singular" all refer to the third person singular form of the predicate verb.
Here's an example. "I like red" corresponds to the English language"i like red." ""You like red."So when the subject is in the first person and the second person, the predicate verb "like.""They are all used in their original form. If the subject is a third person plural, i.e. "they", the following verb is still in the original form "like"."。
But here comes the pointIf the subject is he, she, it or a personal name such as haley, the subject is in the third person singular, so the predicate verbs after them should also be in the corresponding three singular form, so in this example"likes"Finish. For example: she likes red haley likes red.
