O presente do indicativo, ou simple present, como é conhecido em inglês, usualmente é utilizado para descrever hábitos, fatos, eventos de um futuro próximo ou para descrever o momento presente.
A regra para verbos regulares é muito simples: quando for conjugar basta remover o TO (da forma infinitiva) e repetir a base do verbo. Ex: I like. A exceção desta regra se dá na conjugação na terceira pessoa do singular.
O tempo do presente contínuo, ou Present Continuous, é utilizado em língua inglesa para se referir a ações ou acontecimentos contínuos, em progresso no momento presente.
A estrutura das frases no Present Continuous apresenta necessariamente o verbo TO BE e verbo principal terminado em ING.
O verbo TO BE é flexionado de acordo com o sujeito:
I - AM
YOU - ARE
HE/SHE/IT - IS
WE - ARE
YOU - ARE
THEY - ARE
Em frases negativas, o NOT aparece ao lado do verbo TO BE.
Ex: I am NOT good.
Em frases interrogativas o verbo TO BE aparece no início da sentença.
Ex: IS he good?
