often通常和一般现在时态连用,所以不会用-ing形式.置于用现单三形式还是原形,这取决用主语,如果主语是单数第三人称,那就用现单三形式,其他情况下用原形。
I often play computer games.She often plays computer games.
当主语是第一人称(I,We)、第二人称(You,You)或者是第三人称复数(They,students,teachers.)时,often后面的动词不加-s
当主语是第三人称单数(She,He,It,人名.)是often后面动词加-s ing是不用加的,应该没有这个说法。
often后面加动词原形还是加s,这是分情况的。若主语为第三人称单数(他,她,它),则动词应变为第三人称单数形式。多数动词后跟s,特殊的动词会跟es,如:do-does,go-goes.若主语为除第三人称单数外的人称(你,我,你们,我们,他们,她们,它们),则动词应为原形,不做改变。
