Lo utilizamos para describir h\u00e1bitos, acciones repetidas y verdades que siempre son ciertas. Por ejemplo, <span data-no-translation>I drink coffee every morning<\/span> describe un h\u00e1bito habitual, y <span data-no-translation>The sun rises in the east<\/span> expresa un hecho general. La formaci\u00f3n del presente simple es bastante sencilla: para sujetos como <span data-no-translation>I, you, we, they<\/span>, se utiliza la forma b\u00e1sica del verbo (p. ej., <span data-no-translation>eat<\/span>). Sin embargo, para <span data-no-translation>he, she, it<\/span>, debes a\u00f1adir <span data-no-translation>-s<\/span> o <span data-no-translation>-es<\/span> al verbo (p. ej., <span data-no-translation>eats<\/span>). Para formar oraciones negativas y preguntas, utilizamos los verbos auxiliares <span data-no-translation>do<\/span> o <span data-no-translation>does<\/span>. Dominar este tiempo verbal fundamental es esencial para sentar unas bases s\u00f3lidas en la gram\u00e1tica inglesa.<\/div>\n<h2>\u00bfQu\u00e9 es el presente simple?<\/h2>\n<p>El presente simple es un tiempo verbal del ingl\u00e9s.
