Present Simple

Present Simple

We use the Present Simple to describe HABITS and FACTS in the present

Examples:

• He crawls to school every day
• It rains, it pours.
  

SHIT-rule

SHIT-rule

She/He/It = Shit

If you can replace the noun with the pronouns she/he/it you add an ‘s’ to the end of the verb in the present tense

Examples: 

The beautiful unicorn jumps in the rain

Bob runs around the field

I scream, she screams, he screams, we all scream for ice cream

'To Be', 'To Have', 'To Do'.
