Which is correct “time flies” or “time flys”

2 Answers

  1. Time flies is the correct phrase. Fly is acting as a verb here. So, with singular noun (here time), we use -es in the end of verb (Present Indefinite Tense). In modern English, the word flys has never been used.

    Hence time flies is correct and time flys is incorrect.
