• You watch--> SHIT watches

• Woorden die eindigen op -Y krijgen bij SHIT inplaats van de Y, ies erachter.

• We try--> SHIT tries

• Achter do/go komt -es in de present simple.

• I go--> SHIT goes

• Als er a, e, i, o of u voor de –y sta gebruik je de normale regel bij SHIT (dus de -S achter de stam van het werkwoord).

• We buy --> SHIT buys

Present simple vs present continuous
