Present Tenses?
The 'Present Tenses' (Tegenwoordige Tijd) all describe actions that are happening right now. 

"I walk to school every day"
"She is a great football player"
"We are listening to music together."

Present Tenses?
As you can see there are different ways of making the Present. The Present Simple and Present Continuous.

"I walk to school every day"
"She is a great football player"
"We are listening to music together."

Slide 5 - Diapositive

What is the difference between the two?
It can make a very big difference when you're using the wrong tense. There are a two important things that make them different:

  • Betekenis         (What does the sentence mean?
  • Vorm                (How is the tense formed?)

Slide 6 - Diapositive

Betekenis
When we use the Present Simple, we are talking about things that are always happening:

I walk to school every day
The sun always rises in the east.
He likes pizza.   -->  He likes pizza today, tomorrow and right now

Slide 7 - Diapositive

Meaning
When we use the Present Continuous, we are talking about things that are happening right now:

I am walking to school right now
He is enjoying this music.
The sun is rising

Slide 8 - Diapositive

Right now
Always

He is talking.
She loves that music.
I am a boy.
We are listening to you.
That is fun!

Slide 9 - Question de remorquage

Form
When we make the Present Simple we only need a verb. We add an -s with the SHIT-rule:

I walk to school every day. 
The sun always rises in the east.
He likes pizza. 

Slide 10 - Diapositive

Form
When we make questions (vragen) in the Present Simple we also add 'do' or 'does' (SHIT-rule) to the beginning of the sentence. The original -s in the SHIT-rule disappears:

Do I walk to school every day?
Does the sun always rise in the east?
Does he like pizza?

Slide 11 - Diapositive

Form
When we make negations (ontkenningen) in the Present Simple we also add 'do' or 'does' (SHIT-rule) and 'not' to the beginning of the sentence. The original -s in the SHIT-rule disappears:

I do not walk to school every day.
The sun does not always rise in the east.
He does not like pizza.
