Hi, my dear teachers,
Sometimes, I have a doubt about the verb that I should use with the third person. I certainly know that I should use with "he, she, it" the verbs that gets "S".
Examples:
1. He usually goes to the park every day.
2. She usually spends for learning English one hour every day.
3. Tom has a nice dog that it eats more.
My doubt is where I want to use the adjectives with the third person.
A- Please, look at my below sentences.
Which of them are correct, please?
And why?
1. Your students has a lot of books.
2. Your students have a lot of books.
B- Can the adjectives change the third person's verbs?
For example:
1. Her student have many books.
2. Her students have many books.
3. Your student have a nice car.
4. Their student have a nice car.
5. Their students have many nice cars.
6. My student have a nice car.
7. My students have many nice cars.
Thanks in advance and best wishes,

Dear Danny,
Thank you for answering me with a lot of patience.
A- Should we use the verb spend only with time/money?
Does it mean "Something" only refers to time/money?
OR
Something can be everything?
B- Is my sentence (she usually spends for learning English one hour every day) a bad grammar sentence?
C- If I use my above sentence, will not a native speaker get my meaning?
Thanks in advance and best wishes,
Dear Danny,
Firstly, I got my answer very well. Thank you very much.
Secondly, about my below sentence:
"She usually spends for learning English one hour every day."
Subject + adverb + verb + preposition (for) + object of preposition (learning English) + adverb of time (one hour) + adverb of time (every day).
Sorry.
1. Why is my sentence incorrect?
2. Can we say the above subject in two ways (your sentence, and also my sentence)?
3. Is it possible that we say one subject in two ways in English grammar, please?
Thanks in advance and best wishes,
