Simple Present Tense

Present Tense is a tense used for locating event or activity that is happened in present time.

  • If it is followed by verb, the formula of simple present tense is:

 








Adverbs of time => Today, every day, etc.
 

It also generally uses words, such as always, usually, often, seldom, etc
 

 Notes: Verb + s/es is just used for singular subject (she, he, it)


Verbs are added by the use of –s if the last letter of the verb is “e”, “d”, “t”, “l”, “p”, ”n”, “g”, “b”, “k”, “g”.

For examples:

Cook – cooks
Clean – cleans
Read - reads

Verbs are added by the use of –es if the last letter of the verb is “o”, “ch”, “ss”, “sh”, “x”, ”z”,

For examples:

Watch- watches
Wash –washes
Mix - mixes

Certain rules of verb in which the last letter is “y”

- If the last letter before “y” is a vocal letter, we just need to add –s after “y”

For examples:

Buy – Buys
Play – Plays
Say – Says

-    If the last letter before “y” is a consonant, we need to change “y” into “i”, and then add –es after “i”.

Dry – Dries
Fly – Flies
Cry – Cries
