How do you use the words make and makes?

Answer 1

Make and makes are forms of the verb "to make" and makesis only used for the third-person singular, present tense (i.e. he, she, or it makes).

In describing products by various manufacturers, the word "make" is used to indicate the producing company, and "model" the specific form of the product. In this case, the noun is make, singular, for one product, and makes, plural, to describe more than one product from more than one manufacturer.

Example :

"His favorite make of tractor is the Honda, but he has bought several other makes in the past."
