解説 Definition
eats は eat（食べる）の三人称単数現在形です。主語が he、she、it や単数名詞のときに、現在の習慣や事実として「食べる」と言う場合に使います。
Eats is the third-person singular present form of eat. It describes consuming food as a habit, repeated action, or present fact when the subject is he, she, it, or a singular noun.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
eats は eat「食べる」に三人称単数現在の -s を付けた形です。eat の末尾は無声音 /t/ なので、-s は /s/ と発音し、全体は /iːts/ になります。he、she、it や単数名詞を主語にして、He eats rice every morning のような習慣・事実と結び付けて覚えましょう。
Link eats directly to the subject pattern he, she, it, or one named person or thing. Start with eat and add the third-person singular ending -s: “I eat rice,” but “He eats rice.” Because eat ends in the voiceless sound /t/, the ending is pronounced /s/, making /iːts/. Practice it with routines and general facts, such as “My sister eats an apple after lunch,” since the simple present commonly describes habits rather than an action happening at this exact moment.
例文
He eats rice every morning.
彼は毎朝ご飯を食べます。
My sister eats an apple after lunch.
妹は昼食のあとにりんごを食べます。
The child eats slowly at dinner.
その子は夕食をゆっくり食べます。

eats の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古英語 etan（食べる）から派生し、印欧祖語 *ed-（食べる）に遡る。ラテン語 edere（食べる）と同根で、英語 edible（食用の）や comestible（食料）も同じ語根を持つ。人間の最も基本的な行為を表す、印欧語族共通の古い語である。
Eats consists of eat plus the third-person singular present ending -s. Eat comes from Old English etan and ultimately from the ancient Indo-European root *ed-, “to eat.” Latin edere arose from the same root and contributed to English words such as edible. The -s ending developed as the standard marker used with a third-person singular subject in the English present tense.
