TOPIC: SIMPLE PRESENT

HOW TO USE IT AND RULES


USES

The simple present is a verb tense with two


main uses.
We use the simple present tense when an
action happens regularly. Depending on the
person, the simple present tense is formed by
using the root form or by adding s or es to the
end.
EXAMPLES

I feel great!
Pauline loves pie.
I’m sorry to hear that you’re sick
How to form the simple present

In the simple present, most regular verbs use the root form, except in
the third-person singular (which ends in s).
 First-person singular: I write.
 Second-person singular: You write.
 Third-person singular: He/she/it writes. (Note the s.)
 First-person plural: We write.
 Second-person plural: You write.
 Third-person plural: They write.
For a few verbs, the third-person singular ends with es instead
of s. Typically, these are verbs whose root form ends
in o, ch, sh, th, ss, gh, or z.

First-person singular: I go.
Second-person singular: You go.
Third-person singular: He/she/it goes. (Note the es.)
First-person plural: We go.
Second-person plural: You go.
Third-person plural: They go.

normally put at the beginning of the question.
