Past Simple Definition

The Past Simple Definition

The Past Simple tense, also called the Simple Past, is used for past actions that happened either at a specific time, which can either be given by a time phrase (yesterday, last year, etc.) or understood from the context.

Regular Verbs add -ed to the base form, or -d if the verbs ends with -e. Irregular verbs can change in many different ways. The verb form is the same for all persons:

eg: I liked, you liked, she/he/it liked, we liked, they liked.

NOTE: After the auxiliary verb, Did/Didn't, it returns to the base form:

eg: Did you take it?

eg: She didn't like it.

Present Simple Definition

Present Simple Tense

Definition:

i/ Actions that are repeated or habitual
ii/ States
iii/ Statements that are always true

Examples:
a) I get up at 9.00 am.
b) I like coffee.
c) The sun sets in the west.

The form of the verb is usually the same as the base form, but the third person singular adds -s. Some verbs change, like 'to be', which uses 'am', 'are' and 'is', and 'to have', where the third person is 'has'. The auxiliary verb 'to do' is used in a negative structure or a question:

Do you like tea?
Does she live nearby?
I don't like them.
She doesn't go to the theatre very often.

The third person returns to the base form when 'does' or 'doesn't' are used.
