Present simple sentences have one verb in the present form.

For he/she/it or a singular noun subject the present tense form of a verb is - verb + s eg She likes ice cream. The doctor likes ice cream.

For all other subjects the present tense form is the base verb eg They like ice cream, we like ice cream. The boys like ice cream
