The Present Tense

The Present Tense in English is used to describe actions happening now, habits, general truths, and situations that continue over time. It helps us express what is real, current, or regularly true. There are several forms of the present tense, including Present Simple, Present Continuous, Present Perfect, and Present Perfect Continuous, each showing a different aspect of time and activity. Understanding these forms allows you to talk confidently about what you do, what is happening, and what has been happening up to now.
