Which is correct to use in a sentence: he want or he wants?

In addition, "he wants" is the correct expression. This is because "he" as a singular pronoun will always attract "wants" which is a singular lexical verb. Note that as against the way nouns function. Plural verbs do not attract "s". For example, eat, do, want: they eat everyday. On the other hand: he eats everyday. I hope that was helpful. -Gideon

It depends on the context of your sentence, but most of the time you will be writing and say "he wants". If there is a modal verb before the pronoun, though, you should use "he want". I will give you examples so that you can easily understand what I mean: Normal usage: - He wants to eat. - I understand that he wants a car. - No matter what he wants, he always gets it. Modal usage: - Why would he want that? Or another usage: - Why did he want that? Hope this helps :)
