Pada post kali ini kita akan bahas mengenai bentuk Simple Present Tense. Secara umum, Simple Present Tense adalah salah satu bentuk tenses yang digunakan untuk menyatakan suatu kejadian yang merupakan kebiasaan, kebenaran umum atau fakta.
Untuk lebih lengkap mengenai Simple Present Tense, berikut penjelasan lengkapnya.
A. Kalimat Verbal
Bentuk kalimat verbal dalam Simple Present Tense adalah sebagai berikut,
(+) S + V 1
(-) S + do/ does not + V 1
(?) Do/ does + S + V 1
*s/es khusus ditambahkan untuk penggunaan subyek orang ketiga tunggal ( He, She,atau It)Contoh :
- She gets up at 5 o'clock in the morning. (Subject She; sehingga kata kerja ditambahkan s/es)
- I usually help my mother after school. (subject I; sehingga kata kerja tidak ditambahkan s/es)
- The students get a lot of homework every weekend. (Subject the students (jamak); sehingga kata kerja tidak ditambahkan s/es)
- Water doesn't flow from the lower places into the higher palces. (Subject Water; kata bantu untuk membuat kalimat negatif menggunakan kata does bukan do)
B. Kalimat Nominal
Apabila predikat dalam kalimat berupa kata selain kata kerja, yaitu kata sifat ( adjective), kata benda ( Noun), dan kata keterangan ( adverb), maka harus menggunakan To BE ( Is, am, are) sebagai kata kerja bantunya.
(+) S + is/ am/ are + Complement
(-) S + (is/ am/ are) not + Complement
(?) (Is/ am/ are) + S + Complement
Penggunaan Subjek:
He, She, It ; is
I ; am
They, We ; are
Contoh:
1. Shinta is sad.
