00:00Hi kids, today we will learn about verbs for singular and plural.

00:11We know verbs are action words.

00:15For example, my dog runs, jumps, and wags his tail.

00:25Here runs, jumps, and wags are the action words or verbs.

00:33My friend Emma dances very well.

00:38Here the word dances tells about what Emma does.

00:43So here the word dances is an action word or a verb.

00:51I am going to school by bus.

00:54Here the word going tells what I am doing.

00:59So the word going is an action word or a verb.

01:05So kids, verbs are the action words in the sentence.

01:12Here are some sentences.

01:15Let's read them and circle the verbs in them.

01:18I drink a glass of milk twice a day.

01:24Drink is the action word or verb here.

01:27I play the piano every day.

01:32Play is the action word or verb here.

01:36I like to eat ice cream.

01:39Now in this sentence there are two action verbs and they are like and eat.

01:48I eat ice cream every day.

01:53Eat is the action word or verb here.

01:58I write poetry every day.

02:02Write is the action word or the verb here.

02:08I love to dance.

02:11Dance is the action word or verb here.

02:20Playing is the action word or verb here.

02:25They are playing with a disc.

02:29Playing is the action word or verb here.

02:32Drink, play, like, eat, write, dance, singing, dancing, all are action words or verbs.

02:45A sentence can have one or more than one verbs in it.

02:51We should wash our hands before eating.

02:55There are two verbs in this sentence, wash and eating.

03:02I like to dance and sing.

03:06There are three verbs in this sentence, like, dance, and sing.

03:13So you can one or more than one verbs in a sentence.

03:21So you can have one or more than one verbs in a sentence.

03:29Now here we have some more sentences.

03:33Circle the verbs and observe them.

03:37He dances very well.

03:40She dances very well.

03:43They dance very well.

03:46I dance very well.

03:49You dance very well.

03:52So kids, what do you observe here?

03:55The verb in these sentences is either dance or dances.

04:02So we have two forms of the same verb here, dance or dances.

04:10Let's learn the reason behind it.

04:13Verbs that come after I, you, we, they, and plural nouns do not end with S or ES.

04:25When a verb comes after a singular noun, it ends with S or ES.

04:33Let's learn with examples.

04:36Here we have a verb live.

04:39It has two forms, live and lives.

04:45We will use lives with singular naming words or singular nouns.

04:51For example, he lives in a small town.

04:57She lives in a small town.

05:00Joy lives in a very beautiful city.

05:06Now let's see where will we use live.

05:11I live in a small town.

05:16You live in a small town.

05:19They live in a small town.

05:22Joy and Olivia live in a small town.

05:27So where do we use live?

05:31It comes after when we talk about plural naming words or when our sentences have I, you, we,

05:39and they.

05:40Where do we use lives?

05:43It comes after singular naming words and with he, she, and it.

05:50Let's see some more examples.

05:54The verb sing has two forms, sing and sings.

06:01Where do we use sings?

06:04She sings very well.

06:07My brother sings very well.

06:11Olivia sings very well.

06:15Now let's learn about the usage of sing.

06:19They all sing very well.

06:22We love to sing in concerts.

06:26They sing very well.

06:29Both my brother and sister sing very well.

06:35Here we have another verb, like.

06:39We have two forms of like, like and likes.

06:45They like to eat ice cream.

06:48We like to eat ice cream.

06:51I and my friend like to study together.

06:55Would you like to have a cup of coffee?

06:59So we use like when we talk about plural naming words or when our sentences have I, you, we,

07:08and they.

07:10Now let's see the usage of likes.

07:14He likes to eat ice cream.

07:17She likes to read short story books.

07:21John likes to write long stories.

07:24So we use likes with singular naming words and with he, she, and it.

07:32Here we have a sentence, you dash very neatly, and we need to fill it with the right form

07:40of verb, write or writes.

07:44Kids, we have to place a verb after the pronoun you.

07:50According to the rule, the verb after the pronoun you do not end in S or ES.

07:59So we will use write in this blank.

08:03You write very neatly.

08:07So we have another blank, and we have to fill the right form of verb in the blank, study

08:13or studies.

08:15Kids, we have to place a verb after a plural pronoun, they.

08:22So the verb will not end in S or ES.

08:27So we will put study in the blank.

08:31They study together.

08:35Let's see one last example.

08:39My teacher dash very politely.

08:45We have to, one out of the two words, speak or speaks.

08:53We have to place the verb after a singular pronoun, my teacher.

09:00So the verb will end in S or ES.

09:05So we will choose speaks.

09:10My teacher speaks very politely.

09:14So kids, we have learned the usage of singular and plural verbs with the help of many examples.

09:23Now you may go ahead and take a quiz to learn more.
