Structure (Estructura)
When we talk about the different verb tenses, we have to talk about how to form the tense, as well as when we use it. Therefore, in this lesson, as in the other lessons on verb tenses, we will look at their structure and use.
Present Simple
- 1. Affirmative Sentences
- Subject + verb.
- Examples:
- I talk.
- He eats. (He eats.)
- They learn.
Grammatical Rules
2. Negative Sentences (Frases negativas)
Form To conjugate the present simple we use the infinitive for the subjects "I", "you", "we" and "they" and for the third persons "he", "she" and "it", we add a "-s" to the end of the verb.
- Subject + auxiliary verb (to do) + negative auxiliary (“not”) + verb.
Uses (Usos)
Interrogative Sentences (Frases interrogativas)
1. El presente simple se utiliza para hablar de cosas que suceden habitualmente. A diferencia con el español, no se usa el presente simple para hablar sobre algo que está pasando en el momento en el que hablamos.
Present Simple
Auxiliary verb (to do) + subject + main verb? Examples: Do you talk? Does he eat? Do they learn?
Excepción:
Uses (Usos)
- Los adverbios de tiempo van delante del verbo, excepto el verbo “to be” (ser/estar). Cuando se usa “to be” el verbo va delante del adverbio.
Se suele utilizar el presente simple con adverbios de tiempo: always (siempre), every day (cada día), usually (normalmente), often (a menudo), sometimes (a veces), rarely (raramente), hardly ever (casi nunca), never (nunca)…
