Question: Identify the inflection of the verb: asks.
Options:
Answer: The inflections of the verb asksare the following:
Explanation: Inflections are the extra letters added to nouns, verbs and adjectives in different grammatical forms. Verbs are inflected in their various tenses, such as: simple present, past present, third person, singular/plural, etc. The inflections of the verb asks are the following:
The verb asks is considered a third person verb. Third person verbs, in the simple present tense, always end in –s. Example: *She eats. He sleeps. It asks.
Simple Present is used when an action is happening right now, or when it occurs regularly. This means that we use verbs in their present form, like: Eat (Third person: eats), sleep (Third person: sleeps), ask (Third person: asks).
If a subject is singular, its verb must be singular and if a subject is plural, its verb must also be plural.
She/He/It are considered singular subjects because they refer to one person. We use them with singular verbs, these verbs have an ''s'' at the end. Example: She asks many questions during class.
We/I/You/They are considered plural subjects because they refer to more then one person (with exception of I.) Example: They ask many questions during class.
