The Simple Present Tense


The Simple Present Tense is used to talk about things in general. We are not thinking only events in the present time. We can also use it to explain that something happens all time or repeatedly.

The Simple Present Tense Pattern:

 

 

    Subject + to be (is/am/are) + Complement
    Subject + Verb 1 (+s) + Complement

 

 

To show present events you can use some adverbs of time, such now, every morning/ day…twice a week, very often etc.

Examples:

  • Nurses look after patients in hospital
