English Lesson 1

1.
Present Simple
Let’s start with the basics

2
 “
The Present Simple tense is the most basic tense in
English and uses the base form of the verb.

The only change from the base is the addition of s for

third person singular.

3
 Present Simple

◍ There are two basic structures for the

Present Simple:
◍ 1. Positive sentences

Subject + Main Verb

Present Simple

4
Example
The cat is sitting

5
 Present Simple

◍ 2. Negative and question sentences

◍ subject + + main verb in base form

 auxiliary
subject   main verb  
verb
I, you, we,
  like coffee.
they
+
He, she, it   likes coffee.

I, you, we,
do not like coffee.
they
-
He, she, it does not like coffee.

I, you, we,
Do   like coffee?
they
?
Does he, she, it   like coffee?

8
From the above table, notice the following points.
For positive sentences:

• There is no auxiliary verb.

• We conjugate the main verb by adding s to the third person singular.

For negative and question sentences:

• The auxiliary verb (do) is conjugated in the Present Simple: do, does

• The main verb is invariable in base form: base

• For negative sentences, we insert not between the auxiliary verb and the
main verb.

• For question sentences, we exchange the subject and the auxiliary verb.

 Present simple with verb to be

◍ Present Simple with main verb be

◍ The structure of the Present Simple
with the main verb be is:

subject + main verb be

conjugated in
Present Simple
am, are, is

10
 Look at these examples with the main verb be:

  subject main verb be    

I am   French.
You, we,
+ are   French.
they
He, she, it is   French.
I am not old.
You, we,
- are not old.
they
He, she, it is not old.
Am I   late?
you, we,
? Are   late?
they
Is he, she, it   late?

11
 Present Simple

◍ From the above table, notice the following points.

• There is no auxiliary verb, even for questions and
negatives.
• The main verb (be) is conjugated in the Present
Simple: am, are, is
• For negative sentences, we insert not after the main
verb.
• For question sentences, we exchange the subject and
the main verb.

12
 How do we use the Present Simple tense?

◍ We use the Present Simple to talk about:

• general time (action verbs)
• situations now (stative verbs)
• general time and situations now (verb be)

13
 Present Simple for general time

◍ We use the Present Simple

tense when:
• the action is general
• the action happens all the
time, or habitually, in the
past, present and future
• the action is not only
happening now
• the statement is always true

14
 Ejemplo

◍ Look at these examples:

• I live in New York.
• The Moon goes round the Earth.
• John drives a taxi.
• He does not drive a bus.
• We meet every Thursday.
• We do not work at night.
• Do you play football?

15
 Present Simple for general time and now

◍ The verb be is always

special. It is a stative
verb, and we use it in the
Present Simple tense to talk
about now situations and
about general situations.
Look at these examples of the
verb be in the Present Simple
tense - some are general and
some are now:
