simple present tense
The simple present tense, or in English it is called the simple present. It is the most used tense when speaking because it expresses personal habits, daily routine, or facts. It is formed from the first conjugation of the verb by adding s/es/ies to the singular subject (he/she/it or any singular noun) But the plural subject such as (you/we/they/i or any plural noun) is the verb in the infinitive, i.e. without any additions. There are frequency conditions that determine how often you do an action: Always Often Sometimes Never . Negation: Don't to negate the plural + infinitive Doesn't to negate a singular verb + the infinitive (inf). The infinitive means that the verb is without any additions.
