PRESENT SIMPLE AND PRESENT CONTINUOUS

SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE
1. We use the simple present tense when an action is happening right now, or when it happens regularly (or unceasingly, which is why it’s sometimes called present indefinite).
2. GRAMMAR (FORM)
  1. The infinite verb with the personal pronouns: I, you, we and they (or with the plural form of nouns)
  2. the verb + s with the personal pronouns he, she, it (or with the singular form of nouns)
3. NOTE
  1. Negative sentences and questions are formed with the auxiliary verb 'do'.
  2. The 3rd person singular of 'do' is 'does'. This means that in negative sentences and questions the 's' of the main verb is placed behind 'do'.
  3. Example
4. The other is to talk about habitual actions or occurrences.
PRESENT CONTINUOS
1. We use the present continuous:
  1. To talk about events which are in progress at the moment of speaking
  2. To talk about temporary states which are true around the moment of speaking
  3. To describe actions which are repeated or regular, but which we believe to be temporary
  4. To talk about a gradual change
  5. With words like always, constantly, continually and forever (adverbs of indefinite frequency) to describe events which are regular but not planned, and often not wanted
  6. to refer to the future when we talk about plans and arrangements that have already been made
2. GRAMMAR (FORM)
  1. Is formed from the present tense of the verb be and the present participle (-ing form) of a verb
  2. NOTE
    1. When the verb ends in -e, we take off the -e and add -ing.
    2. When the verb ends in a vowel followed by a single consonant and if the last syllable is stressed, then the consonant is doubled.
    3. When the verb ends in a vowel + l, we double the consonant.
