Sorry if this seems a silly question but a friend and I seem to have tangled ourselves up in this one. Im 99% sure im right but…if you want to say “Time flies when you’re having fun” Is is correct to use “flies” over “flys”? If you however say “we are flying at 35,000ft” why cant you simply add an “s” to “fly”? :shock:
No, we cannot do that.
fly - flies
ply - plies
dry - dries
cry - cries
try - tries
See?
Thought so! Many thanks indeed!!
