Hi friends, I'm back with a new lesson. Well! when someone asks you
What time do you wake up? what do you say.....
'I'm waking up', 'I have woken up' or 'I wake up'
Well! a lot of people get confused because they really don't know
what form of VERB they should use when they have to speak about
a daily routine action. Well! this is what today's lesson is about
using the 'Simple Present Tense"
As you know every verb has three forms - The present
The Past and The Past Participle. So, in the simple present tense, remember you use only
the simple form of the verb or the base form of the verb
So, we're going to take a look at, when do we use the Simple Present Tense, Okay
Well! I like Chocolates
Now, if you see- like is the present form of the verb
generally I like chocolate, so when you talk about preferences
habits, taste - things that you do daily
you always say - I like chocolates - you cannot say - I'm liking chocolates
it's not correct, right? because first of all like
doesn't go in the 'ING' form. So, you say I like chocolates
so generally, I like chocolates, okay!
so you use the simple present tense
I like chocolates. okay, He plays tennis
Now, remember for the third person singular He , She or IT
you use the verb in the 's' form
okay, so 'go' becomes 'goes', 'do; becomes 'does'
'dance' becomes 'dances'. This is a rule that you have to follow, only for the
third person simple present tense. So, I cannot say "He play tennis"
that is incorrect - " He plays tennis" you see the verb again is
in the simple present tense, okay.
So supposing, I'm talking about my friend who likes to play tennis. I say -
"He plays tennis regularly"
Okay, so when you talk about
regular actions, routines you use the simple present tense. So, he plays
tennis regularly" okay, so you have words like regularly,
usually, often. okay,
So, "He plays tennis regularly" - a routine action it could be
once in a week, it could be once in fifteen days, it could be every evening
but this is something that he generally does, so use the simple present ense
okay, don't say "He's playing tennis" if you say "He's playing tennis"
that means - He's playing tennis right now but if I want to talk about an action
that he does regularly
I'm gonna say "He plays tennis" okay
Now, "The Sun rises in the east"
The sun is the third-person (it) So, I have put the verb in the 's' form
rises in the east, any universal truth
general facts - you put it in the simple present tense
Well ! another general fact - say for example ' Cats like milk'
okay, I can't say - Cats are liking milk, Cats like milk.
it's a general fact, that we are talking about, any universal truth
we use the simple present tense. Okay, and
of course every day the Sun rises in the east
Okay, friends
so I hope this is clear to you so far. For general facts
you must include to use the simple present dent
okay make sense that train
leaves at 8 p.m.
now wet today's the present I may be speaking about
next week okay but I think next week my train leaves at
8 p.m. may be wondering when she's talking about next week
why am I using the simple person tent
well this is a can you a fixed timetable as candy
well the first flight to New York leave
act seven in the morning okay so probably every day or maybe three times
a week
it a fixed schedule there is a flight that leaves at seven in the morning
so any pics get you any timetable
medals ranking though it is routine you put it in the simple present
okay now
sometimes me there are some books that we cannot put
in the continuous form that means in the ninety phone though technically they
they should be in the and the farm but bed are certain exceptions
now for example the Bobby okay
be ready rarely goes in the anti-reform
but i wanna say I'm your now the right the right now my
action obeying your is on I cannot see I am being you
came go
that is the way it is my present this on your right now
I cannot put it on the engine from because that's the one that offered in
Webster just don't knowingly and reform
so you put it in the simple present tense thing I am
your own you
K
so remember we use a simple present tense for walks that he cannot put in
the nineteen form
like Western extenders he hath
Hispasat part in his hand now right now he's calling his passport
ideally it should be youth having now lot of people make this mistake they say
I'm having money I'm having my passport the latest technique
bleak correct that right now you I possessing it
but remember when you use have out to indicate position
up something who do not put it in the ING phone put it in the
simple present tense he hath well with he she it we always use help
so he has his passport in his hand you do not see
he is having smoking
member a structure like this he is having
when you want to say he's possessed think does not go in the
I'm chief on do remember that alright super were up like
see wet love you don't tell someone I'm loving you you don't know my
I love you right you do not put it on the ante for to use the simple present
okay I hope these examples are to:
but gonna take a look at how to make questions and negative
in the Simple Present so now
John is intelligent this is a simple present tense he is intelligent
now if I make this into question I'm going to do is put
is that the book before the subject like this
is John intelligent with a question mark
okay now when you have a
is then are in the simple present tense you do not
use told us okay you just have to take is Mr
before the subject and you have a question that
is John intelligent not they does is John intelligent don't get confused
just remember when you use is Mr all you need to do is
bring it before the subject and add a question mark okay
when they get there be would say John you
isn't are is not intent
okay see you just and unknown
okay fence now
the next sentence the train leave at six this is a statement
okay if I want to of I would say that does the train leave at six
now pic of the work has
and Espana it's the code person so when you make
a question when you talk about a third person singular
youth does okay you have do blasting yes that makes it does
dust train leave okay a good shop bser
this s away your good topic okay you do not think that the train leaves
that's wrong is it does the plane leave at 6
because do has taken the responsibility of BS
by taking an yes so you dropped the SEO okay
remember this don't make the mistake i think thats the tree
leaks its dust the train leave
at six o'clock okay so I remember you used us for the third person to make a
question
okay an extended may play tennis now
big play tennis if I want to ask you
I'm gonna say do they play tennis your I do not use dust buses used only per
person
singular this is third person plural you just use
do do the play tennis okay and you have a question that
wet so remembered when does is used
only in December present 10th to make
a quest okay now the next example
I know him now this is a positive statement if I wanna put it in negative
okay in the simple present tense I don't think I'm not know him
that a No I'm not knowing him
that again wrong you say I'm don't know him are I do not
know him don't is a contraction a do and
not say say I don't know him
okay so don't is the negative
to I know him I don't know
okay and the last example she dances well
CMBS for me she down to third person she down to spell
Jenna fact that she does when you ask the question
does she dan way
okay so you use does she
down to it non-cash she banks as well
this is the question when a couple donated she
doesn't honest not
down well
at my quest she doesn't
down when not she doesn't down says when dropped the F because you've taken does
she doesn't down to it okay friend
so remember what is Mr new do not use to dust
you need a movie before the subject in kids you make a question but
if you want to put a negative all you need to say is John is not
I am NOT you are not alright in gave up a question in the simple present them to
use doing both
in case of negative you use don't and
death okay print well this brings me to the end of its lesson
