Explanation:

• For most verbs, we simply add "s" to the base form (like "join" → "joins").
• If the verb ends in -s, -sh, -ch, -x, or -z, we add -es (like "kiss" → "kisses").
• For verbs ending in -y preceded by a consonant, we change the -y to -ies (like "fly" → "flies").
• If -y is preceded by a vowel, just add -s (like "enjoy" → "enjoys").
