English is simple in that the verbs in it almost do not change when conjugated. But still, you need to know the rules, because many forget about one small, but important detail.

Instruction manual
one
Let’s take the verb “to play” - “play” for clarity. All verbs in the present tense with the pronouns "I (I), you (you, you, you), we (we), they (they)" stand in the infinitive (n.f) only without the particle to (something like the ending "t" in Russian), which denotes the initial form. That is, this verb will conjugate like this:
I play
you play
we play
they play.

With pronouns 3 persons numbers, that is, with "he (he), she (she), it (it)", the ending -s (-es) is added to the verb without a particle to. -Es will be used if the verb ends in s, ch, sh. Thus, the verb to play with these pronouns will look like this:
he plays
she plays
it plays.

Now conjugate other verbs. For example: to see, to drink, to think, to teach.
