I suppose people aren’t that used to telling stories in the present tense.
Comment on It would have to be a VERY lazy dog to allow a fox to jump over it anyway.

jumps over the lazy dog.
Otherwise there’s no “s.”
It tells a short story that’s visual and full of 2ords people know how to spell.

As a non-native yet quite fluent speaker of English, I was wondering where the letter s was supposed to be in the example above. Thanks for pointing out the very obvious thing anyway, brains can fart at times.

The full sentence is, “the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.”
Intent is to use every letter of the English alphabet. Thing is, I’ve heard “jumped” for decades now which ironically leads to s being skipped. I say ironically because it’s one of the most commonly used letters.
