📝 Grammar Rules Applied:

- For I / You / We / They (plural or second person) → use the base form of the verb.
- For He / She / It (third person singular) → add -s or -es to the verb.
- Add -es if the verb ends in: s, x, z, ch, sh, o (e.g., go → goes, watch → watches).
- Negative sentences:
- Use do not (for I/you/we/they) or does not (for he/she/it).
- Followed by the base form of the verb.
- NO CONTRACTIONS: So write “do not” not “don’t”, and “does not” not “doesn’t”.
