Takeaways

  • 😀 Simple present tense is used for everyday activities, habitual actions, and general truths.
  • 😀 Simple present tense has two main forms: verbal (using action verbs) and nominal (using 'to be' verbs or nouns).
  • 😀 Positive verbal sentences: I/You/We/They use the base verb, He/She/It adds s/es.
  • 😀 Rules for adding s/es in 3rd person singular: add s, add es for ch/sh/s/x/o, change y → i + es if preceded by consonant, add s if y follows a vowel.
  • 😀 Negative verbal sentences: use 'do not' (don't) for I/You/We/They, 'does not' (doesn't) for He/She/It.
  • 😀 Interrogative verbal sentences: use 'Do' for I/You/We/They, 'Does' for He/She/It at the beginning of the question.
  • 😀 Time expressions like every day, every night, every Sunday, sometimes, always are common signals of simple present tense.
  • 😀 Nominal positive sentences use am/is/are based on the subject: I → am, You/We/They → are, He/She/It → is.
  • 😀 Nominal negative sentences use am/is/are + not; interrogative sentences invert am/is/are with the subject.
  • 😀 Question words (e.g., Where, What, How) can start sentences in simple present tense, and sentence structure adjusts according to the subject and verb type.
  • 😀 Mastery of subject-verb agreement, correct use of s/es, and proper sentence structure for positive, negative, and interrogative forms is essential for using simple present tense correctly.
