What do you remember?

Look! Those boys_________ (walk) in the park!

Right now, my father _________ (cook) us dinner.

I __________ (listen) to Isa at the moment.

stam ww                   I run, he runs, we run, she runs

he/she/it = s rule

Dus:

Present simple (gewone tegenwoordige tijd):

- gewoontes

- routines

- feiten

(always, often, sometimes, never)

Present continuous (am/is/are + ww + ing)
