The present simple tense is used to talk about general truths, habits, routines, and permanent situations. It is formed by using the base form of the verb (without adding -s or -es for third-person singular subjects).

Examples: - I eat breakfast every morning. - She works at a bank. - The sun rises in the east. - Cats like to play with yarn.

Note: The present simple tense can also be used to talk about scheduled future events or to express future plans when used with a future time marker (e.g., “The train leaves at 8 PM tomorrow”).

The present simple tense is used to talk about things that are generally true, habits, routines, and things that are always true. We use the base form of the verb without adding -s or -es for he/she/it.

Examples: - I eat breakfast every morning. - She works at a bank. - The sun rises in the east. - Cats like to play with yarn.

Note: We can also use the present simple tense to talk about future events that are scheduled or planned, but we need to use a future time marker (e.g., “The train leaves at 8 PM tomorrow”).
