3. Copy in here all the information you found about “Present Simple,” keep the information you gather well organized.

Cuando hablamos de los diferentes tiempos verbales, tenemos que hablar de cómo formar el tenso, así como cuando lo usamos. Por lo
tanto, en esta lección, como en las demás lecciones sobre los tiempos verbales, miraremos su estructura y uso.
Grammatical Rules (Reglas gramaticales)

- Form (Forma)
Para conjugar el presente simple usamos el infinitivo para los sujetos “I”, “you”, “we” y “they” y para las terceras personas “he”, “she” y “it”,
añadimos una “-s” al final del verbo.

Sujeto Conjugación
I, you, we, they talk, eat, learn, do, go…
he, she, it talks, eats, learns, does, goes…

Nota: Hay excepciones de ortografía en la tercera persona, según la letra en que termina el verbo. Las reglas son las mismas que se utilizan
para formar el plural de los sustantivos. Para más información, ver la lección sobre los nombres.

Structure (Estructura)
1. Affirmative Sentences (Frases afirmativas)
Sujeto + verbo.

Ejemplos:
 I talk. (Yo hablo.)
He eats. (Él come.)
They learn. (Ellos aprenden.)

2. Negative Sentences (Frases negativas)

Sujeto + verbo auxiliar (to do) + auxiliar negativo (“not”) + verbo.

Ejemplos:
I do not [don’t] talk. (Yo no hablo.)
He does not [doesn’t] eat. (Él no come.)
They do not [don’t] learn. (Ellos no aprenden.)

Nota: En frases negativas, el verbo auxiliar (“to do”) cambia y el verbo principal va en el infinitivo.

3. Interrogative Sentences (Frases interrogativas)

Verbo auxiliar (to do) + sujeto + verbo principal?

Ejemplos:
Do you talk? (¿Hablas tú?)
Does he eat? (¿Come él?)
Do they learn? (¿Aprenden ellos?)

Nota: Como en frases negativas, en frases interrogativas el verbo auxiliar (“to do”) cambia y el verbo principal va en el infinitivo.

Para más información sobre la estructura de frases, ver la lección, construir frases.
Uses (Usos)
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.
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)…

Ejemplos:
I always talk to my mother on Sunday. (Siempre hablo con mi madre
el domingo.)
He never eats vegetables. (Nunca come las verduras.)
They usually learn something new in class. (Normalmente aprenden
algo nuevo en la clase.)

Excepción:

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.

Ejemplos:
I am always happy. (Siempre estoy contento.)
He is often sick. (A menudo él está enfermo.)
They are rarely late. (En raras ocasiones llegan tarde.)

2. Se utiliza para hablar de generalidades o hechos científicos.

Ejemplos:
He does not [doesn’t] eat vegetables. (Él no come verduras.)
She works in a hospital. (Ella trabaja en una hospital.)
Elephants live in Africa. (Los elefantes viven en África.)
Bogota is in Colombia. (Bogotá está en Colombia.)
Do children like animals? (¿Les gustan a los niños los animales?)
Adults do not [don’t] know everything. (Los adultos no lo saben
todo.)
3. Se usa para eventos programados en el futuro próximo.

Ejemplos:
The train leaves at 10:00. (El tren sale a las 10h.)
The party is tonight. (La fiesta es esta noche.)
Does the festival start tomorrow? (¿Empieza el festival mañana?)
The plane does not [doesn’t] arrive today. (El avión no llega hoy.)
4. Se usa para instrucciones (el imperativo).

Ejemplos:
Open the window. (Abre la ventana.)
Eat the vegetables. (Come las verduras.)
Don’t cry. (No llores.)
Do your homework. (Haz los deberes.)
Call your mother. (Llama a tu madre.)

2. Collage.
Description: In this collage we see the life of a student of the University in photos, in which we have different moments that he wanted to
immortalize in the history of his life, such as the day he took the time to contemplate how wonderful the stairs look, with all its shadows and
stories reminded him of the building where his grandparents live, after the photo he called them, he has his first day in which he got lost and
toured the whole place is reflected in the image of the blue instrument above. He was so intrigued to know what it was but he never took the
trouble to ask because he was embarrassed to remember that day, also the day he realized that the room he was in was symmetrical (almost)
seemed like something curious who commented with his friends now call it the almost symmetrical room (a joke a little shabby). The day of the
laboratory which is the photo in the background with a medicine cabinet sign, that day our protagonist had a very important class but was too
distracted by a girl he liked from his class. The professor put them in the laboratory of couples and he was very excited but he was not able to
cross a glance with her (he was very shy), as I told them he did not pay attention and hurt the girl with the machine curiously it was the same blue
machine that intrigued him that day, took the girl to the infirmary was not something very serious but for him it was death he was never able to
even pass in front of her (on the contrary she believed she was sweet because he cared a lot about her, but as he always avoided her he lost interest
in a short time), the day of the rare plant lol this was very funny the truth all his friends bet that no he dared to drink a little of that water, none was
able, wanting to see his friends as cowards decided to do it, but I end up in the hospital, the good thing was that he had excuse to present a job that
he did not have time to do, the most important day for him, we have the photo of the vase, this day was very important for him, he had the
delivery of a very important project, he tried too hard, the day he had to present it did not arrive on time (but they remember the girl) apparently
she did not lose interest before I helped him to be able to deliver it, from that day they became great friends and then a beautiful couple. We are all
wondering what kind of photos these bone can tell anecdotes not relevant (some if) but it is nothing interesting, but all these photos in a set show
the wonderful adventures that an ordinary student lived in the university and that each of them are important for him to the point of taking a photo
and having them with him forever, also represents the beginning of his adult life, the realization of this collage which is located in his house that
he shared with his wife until the end of his days, we bring it today so that you can enjoy your history as much as he did.
Thank you.
