SIMPLE PRESENT. Se utiliza para hablar de acciones que realizamos cotidianamente. Example: I eat cereal for breakfast(desayuno cereal) You practice karate. (tu practicas karate) They dance in the festival.(ellos bailan en el festival) We study highschool.(nosotros estudiamos secundaria) She plays basketball.(ella juega baloncesto) He cooks meatballs.(el cocina albondigas)

Presente simple en forma afirmativa. A diferencia del español este se escribe únicamente de una manera para todos los pronombres con excepción de las 3ras personas que son el ,ella o eso. Con las 3ras personas le agregamos una “s” al final a la mayoría de los verbos. I play I cook I read You play You cook You read We play We cook We read They play They cook They read She plays She cooks She reads He plays He cooks He reads

Pero si el verbo termina en s, sh, x, o, ch. se le agrega la terminación “es” cuando se conjuga con 3ras personas. Example: Letty teaches english. Toño washes his car. She does her homework. He fixes the car. The model dresses a mini skirt.

O bien si el verbo termina en “y” y antes de esta no hay una vocal se sustituye la “y” por “i” y se agrega la terminación “es”. Pero en caso de que antes de la “y” exista una vocal únicamente se agrega la “s”. Example: She studies medicine. He flies on wekends. She plays bowling.
