Сегашни времена (Present Simple and Continuous)
Сравняваме двете сегашни времена. Present Simple използваме за навици, повтарящи се действия, постоянни ситуации и общоизвестни факти. Present Continuous използваме за действия, които стават в момента, и за временни ситуации. Различаваме ги и по думите за време.
Какво да запомним
- Present Simple: She goes to school every day. (3 л. ед. ч. с -s/-es)
- Въпрос и отрицание с do/does: Does your brother work in a bank?
- Present Continuous: am/is/are + -ing: The children are playing.
- Думи за време: always, usually, every day (Simple); now, at the moment, this week (Continuous)
- Правопис: swim → swimming, make → making
