As you know by now, my goal in this series is to make you curious about common mistakes

and give you the tools that you need to correct your own mistakes.

I must insist again that you must never feel embarrassed or apologise

when you make a language mistake.

Mistakes are a natural part of the learning process
6

and shame has no part in a learning journey.

The more you can become curious about why certain mistakes are so common

00:42
and how to correct them yourself,
9

the more confident and relaxed you will become.

And these good feelings will naturally accelerate your progress.

Okay! In this lesson, I'd like to deal with a question that
12
53107
3790
00:56
I have been asked many times, and the question is:
13
56897
3923
01:00
Should we put the third person singular 's' on the verb after a modal verb?
14
60820
6640
01:07
For example should we say
15
67460
2250
01:09
'he can does'.
16
69888

01:11
Alright, let's find out the answer first and then do some exercises
17

to make sure there is no more confusion about this.

Okay! That's the end of Lesson 3.

If you have been confused about this point for some time,
20

09:31
please make sure you repeat the exercises until you have built a fast reflex
21
571244

09:36
whether you need an 's' or not.
22

If you feel you often make mistakes with modal verbs
23
579655

and want  to review both the formulation and the usage of these verbs,
