- I have another way to remember the -s in present simple tense, too. Okay.. I have to warn you first that this trick is so silly but it worked really good with me when I first started to learn about the present simple tense.. If the subject of the sentence is alone (singular), 'S'uperman will come to help completing the sentence. But when the subject comes as group (plural), they won't need 'S'uperman's help. All these except 'I', because I'm a big girl (as 'I' is always written in capital letter) so I don't need help! **The 'you' (in both cases, singular and plural) doesn't need help neither.. but I couldn't relate 'you' in this trick.. so I kind of remember it separately. hahaha **And I hope you understand that the 'S'uperman refers to an -s after the verb. Sorry in advance if this confuses you. I think Phil's trick works really fine too with most cases. I hope all of these tricks help you! :)0 votedMay 2, 20090
- Hi Zhane, 1). I think this site might be helpful for you.. It clarifies a lot about using the 's' in present simple tense. http://web2.uvcs.uvic.ca/elc/studyzone/330/grammar/pres.htm 2). Also, like Cherry said, you would put the 's' after most of countable nouns when you're talking about more than 'one' of the subjects. There are also so many exceptions on the countable noun issue in plural form, like a man =>men, a fish=>fish, a child=>children, a leaf=>leaves, etc. ahh.. my explanation might confuse you..try this: http://esl.about.com/od/grammarforbeginners/a/g_cucount.htm 3). You will also use an 'apostrophe s' ( 's ) or an 's apostrophe' ( s' ) to indicate possession. for example: Zhane's question, my friends' question.. again, I'll leave you with a link: http://www.wordpower.ws/grammar/gramch17.html 4). Apostrophe s is also short for 'is' or 'was' That's all I can think of right now.. I'm not an English native speaker or an English professional.. just love learning this language so much. So what I'm saying is that my answer may not be 100% accurate, but I'm sure hope this helps! :-)0 votedMay 1, 20090

- Hello, Jura.. She didn't know how to translate those phrases into English, that's why. :) Okay, Zine.. I'm not sure if I will do it all correctly, but here you go.. ดิฉันชื่อ....อายุ...จบการศึกษามาจากโรงเรียน.... สายวิทย์-คณิต My name is ..(ชื่อ)... I am ___ years old. I have graduated from ..(ชื่อ).. school with science and mathematics degree. / I have completed my ___ from ..(ชื่อ).. school ครอบครัวของฉันมีอยู่ 4 คน คือ พ่อ ชื่อ......ทำงาน รับราชการทหาร แม่ ชื่อ....ทำงานเป้นพนักงานบัญชี There are 4 members in my family. My father, ..(ชื่อ).., serves for the army. My mother, ..(ชื่อ).., is an accountant. พี่ชาย ทำงานรับราชการทหาร และฉันเป็นน้องคนเล็ก My brother is also in the army. And I am the youngest. **ตรงนี้ถ้าจะให้สละสลวยน่าจะ include พี่ชายไปในประโยคเดียวกันกับคุณพ่อเลยค่ะ เช่นนะคะ: My father, ..(ชื่อ).., and my brother, ..(ชื่อ).., both serve for the army. I am not 100% sure about the grammar.. but I hope this helps. :)0 votedMay 1, 20090
