PAST TENSE

Now you can continue your review with the Past Tense but first watch these videos please!

The Past Simple or Past Tense

We make the past simple just like the present simple except we use 'did' instead of 'do / does'. It's really easy because 'did' doesn't change, even with 'he / she / it'.

The positive:

We usually make the positive by adding '-ed' to the infinitive. For example, 'play' becomes 'played'. However, there are some irregular verbs, for example 'go' becomes 'went' and 'run' becomes 'ran'.

Affirmative Form

I walked (regular)

you played (regular)

he cooked (regular)

she listened (regular)

it rained (regular)

we ate (irregular)

they drank (irregular)

Here's some help if you are not sure how to pronounce '-ed' at the end of a verb and other rules:

In the negative form there aren't any irregular verbs. All verbs use 'did not (didn't) + infinitive':

Negative	Negative Short Form
I did not walk	I didn't walk
you did not play	you didn't play
he did not cook	he didn't cook
she did not listen	she didn't listen
it did not rain	it didn't rain
we did not eat	we didn't eat
they did not drink	they didn't drink

Questions are also very easy!. Just put 'did' before the subject, and the infinitive after it.

Interrogative Form.-

'Yes / No' Questions

did I walk?

did you play?

did he cook?

did she listen?

did it rain?

did we eat?

did they drink?

PRESENT TENSE

You know the Present Tense but here is some information that can help you to remember and to practice at home, watch this video please!

PRESENT SIMPLE.-

1: We use the present simple when something is generally or always true. 

Examples:

·         People need food.

·         It snows in winter here.

2: Similarly, we need to use this tense for a situation that we think is more or less permanent.

 Examples:

·         Where do you live?

·         She works in a bank.

·         I don't like mushrooms.

3: The next use is for habits or things that we do regularly. We often use adverbs of frequency (such as 'often', 'always' and 'sometimes') in this case, as well as expressions like 'every Sunday' or 'twice a month'. (See the present continuous for new, temporary or annoying habits). 

Examples:

·         I play tennis every Tuesday.

·         I don't travel very often.

4: We can also use the present simple for short actions that are happening now. The actions are so short that they are finished almost as soon as you've said the sentence. This is often used with sports commentary. Examples:

·         He takes the ball, he runs down the wing, and he scores!

The affirmative form is really easy. It's just the verb with an extra 's' if the subject is 'he', 'she', or 'it'. Let's take the verb 'play' as an example:

Affirmative form (of 'play')

I play

you play

he plays

she plays

it plays

we play

they play

·         Don't forget the 's'! Even really advanced students do this!

For a few verbs, there is a spelling change before the 's'. For example, 'study' becomes 'studies'.

There are also few verbs which are irregular in the present simple:

1.    'have' becomes 'has'

2.    'do' becomes 'does'

3.    'go' becomes 'goes'

4.    To make the negative form, you need to use 'do not' (don't) or ' does not' (doesn't).

Negative (of 'play')
I do not play	I don't play
you do not play	you don't play
he does not play	he doesn't play
she does not play	she doesn't play
it does not play	it doesn't play
we do not play	we don't play
they do not play	they don't play

How about the question form of the present simple tense?

We use 'do' or 'does' before the subject to make the 'yes / no' question:

Yes / No questions

do I play ?

do you play ?

does he play ?

does she play ?

does it play ?

do we play ?

do they play ?
