//**Am**//, //**is, was, are**//, and //**were**// are forms of the verb **//be//**. They often serve as linking verbs, connecting the subject of the sentence to a word or words in the predicate that tell about the subject. Use //**am**// after the pronoun **//I//**. Use //**is**// or **//was//** after a singular subject or after the pronoun **//he, she//**, or **//it//**. Use **//are//** or **//were//** after a plural subject or after the pronoun //**we**//, //**you**//, or **//they//**.=====

The information above sounds very confusing when you read it. At this point in your English-speaking lives, it's more about what sounds right. For example, you wouldn't say, **"I is hungry."** It just doesn't sound right. The correct way of saying this is what? **"I'm hungry."** Does, **"He am tired"** make sense? Of course not!
