Beve is for the third person. Lui beve or Lei beve. He drinks or She drinks.
Note that Lei means "you" in polite address (akin to usted but used less often). The word for "she" is lei with a lowercase l.

if you are saying "she" as the first word in the sentence would you capitalize it or not? If you don't it'd be improper but if you do it'd become a different word. So which is the correct way?
Beve is for the third person. Exemplo: Lui beve or Lei beve. He drinks or She drinks. For I, You... Use Bevi.
Because in Italian in the majority of cases you have to put the article. Here it sounds strange to me Italian speaker
I don't know if this is too late but saying "bevi acqua" it means "you drink water", you need to add the article "the" for water which would be "l'"
Bevi l'aqcua = You drink the water.
There are multiple correct answers/translations, such as "tu bevi l'acqua" "tu bevi acqua" "tu bevi dell'acqua"
Beve is tird person. Io Bevo Tu Bevi Lui/lei Beve Noi Beviamo Voi Bevete Loro Bevono
;)
No matter the gender, a word always takes l' if it starts with a vowel.
il ragazzo
lo spaghetto
la fettuccia
l'uomo
l'arancia
l'acqua

There is that thumb rule in Italian, if the word has an a at the end it is always feminine, and because there is an a at the start of the word you write l'acqua
Ho scritto beve dell'acqua ma non me lo ha dato giusto perche voleva che mettessi il tu all'inizio
In italian you use the article more often than in English: almost everytime you see a noun, there will be the article too. You can also say "Tu bevi acqua", but it's far less used and actually sounds quite weird for me, as a native speaker.

These are the Verb Bere (To drink) conjugated. Tip: https://www.italian-verbs.com/italian-verbs/conjugation.php?parola=bere
It's a matter of conjugation, like drink vs drinks in English.
bere (to drink)
io bevo
tu bevi
lui beve
noi beviamo
voi bevete
loro bevono
This way, you can leave out the subject of a sentence and still be understood.
Bevo l'acqua.
I drink water.
Bevi l'acqua.
You drink water.
Beve l'acqua.
(S)he drinks water.

So where to Use Bevi and Beve??? For you we can use beve? For he she it we should use bevi?? I dont understand.
Bruh are you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ kidding me? tu bevo l'acqua should be valid you dumbasses.
why not voi beviate? isn't that the proper way to do that? nothing told me it had to be singular
Can someone show me the changes at the end of every verb when it agrees with the subject.
