You can't physically be agree. The auxillary verb shouldn't be there. I agree!

Hi,

I'll try to explain the difference in a simplified manner:
Let's understand the basics of the Present Indefinite Tense (Simple Present Tense) first.
Use the FIRST FORM of the Verb in the following two ways:
  1. "I am"/ "She, he, Max is"/ "They, we are"...(Adjective/Noun Object)
  2. I/She, he, Max/They, we + First form of Verb
Here are a few sentences:

You can't have a form of be (am, is, are, was, were) with the base form of another verb. Leave it out.

So all of these are incorrect:

I am talk. / You are see. / We are decide. / Henry is listen. / Sally was look.
