the present tenses, which is generally used to refer to everyday actions. The present simple, therefore, makes it possible to refer to routines or activities that are generally carried out on a daily basis. It is also linked to permanence in time and to indubitable statements that are always true.

Let's look at an example. "My mother lives in Brazil" is a sentence in the present simple. As can be seen, the speaker indicates that his mother has her residence established in Brazilian territory: that is, the woman continues to live there while her son pronounces the statement.




"I have drinks a lot of beer" is another example of the use of the present simple. In this case, the expression can be translated as referring to a harmful habit that an individual has.

"I work in a tech company" "We play tennis on Saturdays" and "Michael buys the newspaper every morning" are other sentences developed in the present simple.

It is important to clarify that when “I”, “you” or “we” is used, the lexical base of the verb is used: “I work…”, “You work…”, “We work…”. On the other hand, with “she”, “he” or “it”, it is necessary to add a letter S at the end of the verb: “She works…”, “He works…”, “It works…”.
