How to Make Sentences in the Simple Present Tense
The simple present tense is one of the most important tenses in English, used to express habits, general truths, and daily routines. Making sentences in the simple present tense is straightforward once you understand a few basic rules.
To form a simple present sentence, you generally use the base form of the verb for "I," "you," "we," and "they." For example, "I play soccer" or "They eat breakfast." However, when using "he," "she," or "it," you must add an "s" or "es" to the verb. For example, "She plays soccer" or "He watches TV."
Negative sentences are formed by adding "do not" or "does not" before the verb, like "I do not play" or "She does not watch."
