Grammar
I'm confused
Hi
Can someone helps me? I've received a handout on tenses for my grammar class
She will/shall talk. Why the verb 'talk' does not has s to it.
My question is if there are a few words infront of verb i.e always. can or etc, and if it is singular should I add 's'.
What is the answer?
He can talks or talk.
He always talk or talks
P/S. Kindly correct my mistakes in this question if any. Thanks
