What is the "present simple"?
The present simple is a verb tense used to describe habitual actions, general truths, and routines. It is formed using the base form of the verb for most subjects, with an "s" added for third-person singular subjects, such as "he," "she," or "it." For example, in the sentence "She reads every morning," the verb "reads" is in the present simple tense, indicating a regular activity. The present simple is also used for facts, such as "Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius," and for scheduled events, like "The train leaves at 6 PM." This tense is essential for conveying ongoing actions and established facts in communication.
