exists
ig-ZISTS/ɪɡˈzɪsts/
- 1Third-person singular simple present of exist.
No written record of the meeting exists today.
A rare subspecies of frog exists only in this valley.
Note
The form a singular subject calls for: a record exists, a frog exists, while plural and first- or second-person subjects take plain exist. Because the verb is stative and intransitive, it takes no object and resists the progressive. "The record is existing" sounds wrong where "the record exists" is natural. What usually follows is a place or a time: exists only in this valley, exists today.
