PRESENT
TENSE
this
tense is commonly used for habit, general truths and an event in present time. We
use tobe1 or verb1 after subject. The following examples below will make you
understand how it works.
For Habits :

cup of coffee in the morning

In the third person

drinks. In the negative form the third person of the auxiliary ‘DO’ + the
infinitive of the verb. Example : She wants to buy a dress. Does she want to
buy a skirt? She doesn’t want to buy a skirt.
