Third-Person Singular Subjects
* Refer to a single person or thing that is not the speaker or the person being spoken to.
* Use the singular form of verbs.
Examples:
* She sings beautifully.
* The cat is sleeping.
* My friend loves to travel.
What is NOT a third-person singular subject:
* First-person subjects: "I," "we"
* Second-person subjects: "you"
* Third-person plural subjects: "they," "we," "those"
* Nouns that are plural: "cats," "friends," "cars"
Let's break down a few examples:
* They are going to the store. ("They" is third-person plural)
* I want to go home. ("I" is first-person singular)
* You should study for the test. ("You" is second-person singular)
* The cars are parked in the garage. ("Cars" is plural)
Key takeaway: A third-person singular subject is a single person or thing that is not the speaker or the person being spoken to.
