Vocabulary Learning

⚡ The Power of "S"

When we talk about one person or one thing (He, She, It), the action word often needs an -s at the end.

Look at these examples from the text:

  • He replaces...
  • He works...
  • The club presents...

Why? Because the person is singular (just one).

The Pattern: One Person \rightarrow Action + s

Compare it:

  • They lost (Many people \rightarrow No 's')
  • He replaces (One person \rightarrow Use 's')

🗓️ Talking About Time

To say when something happens or how long a deal lasts, use until.

  • President \rightarrow until 2030
  • Contract \rightarrow until 2029

Use until when there is a clear stop date.
