Help ! I don't know how to phrase something in English.
I'm French-Canadian and I have a small problem.

In a sentence do you say: He/She see something or He/She sees something ?

Also He/She say something or He/She says something ?

Thanks for your help.

2. "You (singular) say" and "You (plural) say"
Edited on Tue Dec-23-08 04:27 PM by Richardo
"I say" and "We say"

Just to complete the series.
