Simple Present

Form: VERB + s / es in the third person
E.g You speak english.

- Use the Simple Present to express the idea that an action is repeated or usual. The action can be a habit, a hobby, a daily event, a scheduled event or something that often happens. It can also be something a person often forgets or usually does not do.

E.g I play tennis.

       The train does not leave at 9:00am.

- The Simple Present can also indicate the speaker believes that a fact was true before, is true now, and will be true in the future. It is not important if the speaker is correct about the fact. It is also used to make generalizations about people or things.

E.g Birds don't like milk

       Windows are made of glass
