@@AngloLinkEnglish Oh! It wasn't one. Looks like I'm still struggling with that rare phenon. Sometimes the reduced number of verb forms does not work in the favor of the language.
For He, She and It, we need to add S, however sometimes it's confusing when to add S. I want to learn more about this topic. Can you make a video about this subject?
It's not that confusing. It is a particularity of the present simple. He-she-it is a mnemonic for third person singular. He and she will usually appear as a name, it represents things. This is very basic stuff, by the way.
I find the confusion arises when the 's' disappears with Modal verbs: He can / must, etc. Also, the fact that it only applies to the Present Simple can be confusing.

Very important thank you
Most welcome, Badia! This is the next topic we're reviewing and activating on the Bootcamp course. See you tomorrow for the LIVE lesson.
I was wondering if you haven't done a lesson about * The historical present, also known as the dramatic or narrative present* have you by any chance ?
I cover the Narrative Present in the last part of this lesson:

@@AngloLinkEnglish Look at this, a subjunctive, take a photo, they're quite rare these days! ;-)
