but she can so she in general she speaks
78:17
german if she wants to she can speak
78:20
german there that's ability
78:23
so this is general action
78:30
and i am american
78:31
is a description
78:36
good and then abilities yeah so she
78:38
speaks german
78:40
um
78:43
all right
78:44
so when we use the simple present with
78:46
most verbs the conjugation is pretty
78:50
simple
78:52
so the conjugation is the way that we
78:54
change the verb depending on who's doing
78:57
it
78:58
so let's see look at the verb walk
79:01
how do you conjugate the word walk in
79:03
english
79:04
you have
79:06
i walk
79:08
again this is simple present
79:12
you
79:14
walk
79:18
she he and it
79:23
walks
79:24
this is the only one that's different
79:26
here this one's special
79:28
he walks
79:29
she walks it walks
79:33
and then
79:34
we have we walk
79:38
and they walk
79:44
okay
79:46
um so this is
79:48
true for most regular verbs
79:51
um good yeah so jen's writing an example
79:54
for us thank you
79:55
i walk my dog walking is good exercise
79:58
yeah it's my favorite good
80:02
really good you guys um
80:04
there are some special verbs though
80:07
um and instead of just adding an s in
80:11
the third person singular
80:13
you have to add an e s
80:16
now can you let us know in the comments
80:19

80:21
verbs do you add an e s to the end when
80:24

80:57
little bit so we're still smaller again
