The Present Simple

What is the present simple?

Nu weet je hoe de present simple eruit ziet.
Maar hoe gebruik je die?

We gebruiken de present simple als we het hebben over:

- Facts  (feiten)

The leopard runs very fast.

- Routines / habits (gewoonten)

Harry plays football every Wednesday. 

The Present Simple

What is the present simple?

In een zin, weet je of het gaat over een feit of een routine door te kijken naar: signal words. 

Woorden zoals: everyday, never, always, every Wednesday, on Saturdays vertellen je dat het om een  routine gaat. Iets dat bijv. vaak gebeurt (often).

If there are no signal words, the sentence tells you a fact.

Look at the words below. Which ones are signal words for the Present Simple and which ones are not?

Not a signal word

What is the present simple?

Now you know what a normal present simple sentence looks like.

Now, we are going to take a look at:

- The SHIT-Rule

- Questions

- Negations

The Present Simple

The SHIT Rule

The SHIT Rule has to do with She, He, and IT.

The rule is:

If the subject (onderwerp) is a he, she or it, the verb    gets +s.

So I dance becomes She dances.

Explain the SHIT-Rule in your own words.

The Present Simple

The SHIT Rule

For the next exercise, try to make logical sentences. 

Also think about the correct use of the SHIT Rule.

Timmy

They never

That tree

very fast.

I always

Those boys

cook

The Present Simple

Questions

To make a present simple question, you have to put the verb do in front of the sentence:

 I like ice cream.     becomes      Do I like ice cream?

If the subject is a he, she or it, you have to use does. Also, look at what happens with the +s of the original verb.

Bob plays football.   becomes   Does Bob play football?

The Present Simple

Questions

For the next exercise, turn the normal present simple sentence into a question. Think about capital letters, questions marks and the SHIT Rule (do/does)!

                                    Use short forms!    

Maak een vraag van:
My dog likes meat.

Maak een vraag van:
That tree looks 100 years old.

Make een vraag van:
You always wear the same dress.

The Present Simple

Questions

The verb 'to be' is a special one. 

If the first verb in the sentence is am, is, or are, you switch it with the subject.

She is very beautiful.  becomes  Is she very beautiful?

'Is' switched places with the subject. In these cases, you don't use 'do' or 'doesn't'.

The old man always sits in his chair.

the old man always
