Present simple: I/you/we/they and he/she

Use the present simple for repeated activities. With I, you, we and they, use the base verb: I work. With he, she and it, many verbs add s: she works. Some add es, as in goes; have becomes has. Lan gets up, has breakfast and goes to work. Usually and sometimes often go before an ordinary verb: I usually walk. With be, they usually go after it: I am usually busy. Use at with a time: at six. If a paragraph is about she, check every verb, not only the first one.

Dùng hiện tại đơn để kể việc lặp lại. Với I/you/we/they, dùng động từ cơ bản: I work. Với he/she/it, thường thêm -s: she works. Một số từ thêm -es như goes; have đổi thành has. Trong bài: Lan gets up, has breakfast và goes to work. Usually hoặc sometimes thường đứng trước động từ thường: I usually walk. Với be, chúng thường đứng sau: I am usually busy. Dùng at trước giờ: at six; không dùng in six. Khi viết lịch, giữ đúng người: nếu đầu đoạn là she, kiểm tra từng động từ thay vì chỉ thêm -s ở câu đầu.

I start work at eight.
She starts work at eight.
He has breakfast at home.
We usually walk to work.
She sometimes takes the bus.

Use: She starts work at eight. · Instead of: She start work at eight.

Use starts after she in this positive statement.

Use: He has breakfast. · Instead of: He have breakfast.

Have becomes has after he.

Final s in everyday actions

Keep the final sounds in starts, works and lives. After /k/ in works, s sounds /s/. After /v/ in lives, it sounds /z/. Practise the word slowly, then in a sentence. Do not add an extra syllable after s.

She works.
He lives here.
She starts at eight.
He has breakfast.
