Takeaways
- 😀 The simple present tense is used to express habits, realities, and general truths.
- 😀 The verb form for the simple present tense depends on the subject: use the base form for 'I', 'you', 'they', and plural nouns; add 's' or 'es' for third-person singular ('he', 'she', 'it').
- 😀 For verbs ending in 'ss', 'sh', 'ch', 'x', or 'o', add 'es' (e.g., 'kiss' becomes 'kisses', 'catch' becomes 'catches').
- 😀 When a verb ends in a consonant + 'y', change the 'y' to 'i' before adding 'es' (e.g., 'study' becomes 'studies').
- 😀 If a sentence lacks a main verb, use 'to be' (is, am, or are) as the verb, depending on the subject.
- 😀 'To be' uses 'is' for third-person singular (he, she, it), 'am' for 'I', and 'are' for plural subjects (they, we, you).
- 😀 Common adverbs used in the simple present tense include 'always', 'usually', 'often', 'never', and 'sometimes'.
- 😀 In negative sentences, use 'do not' (don't) or 'does not' (doesn't) plus the base form of the verb.
- 😀 In interrogative sentences, start with 'do' (for plural subjects) or 'does' (for third-person singular) followed by the base form of the verb.
- 😀 In third-person singular positive sentences, the main verb must have 's' or 'es' added (e.g., 'She buys', 'He plays').
- 😀 The sentence pattern for the simple present tense is: [Subject] + [Verb] in positive, negative, or interrogative form depending on the context.
