📝 Tips para entender la gramática: Presente Simple, Presente Continuo, Pasado Simple y Pasado Continuo

1. Presente Simple: Añade la terminación ‘-s’ a los verbos en tercera persona del singular (he, she, it). Por ejemplo, «She plays tennis every Sunday» (Ella juega tenis todos los domingos).

2. Presente Continuo: Utiliza el verbo ‘to be’ en presente seguido del gerundio (-ing) del verbo principal. Por ejemplo, «I am studying for my exam» (Estoy estudiando para mi examen).

3. Pasado Simple: Añade la terminación ‘-ed’ a la mayoría de los verbos regulares. Por ejemplo, «I walked to the park yesterday» (Caminé al parque ayer).

4. Pasado Continuo: Utiliza el pasado del verbo ‘to be’ seguido del gerundio del verbo principal. Por ejemplo, «They were watching a movie when I arrived» (Estaban viendo una película cuando llegué).

5. Practica utilizando estos tiempos verbales en oraciones y contextos diferentes. Leer y escribir en inglés, así como escuchar a hablantes nativos, te ayudará a familiarizarte con su uso correcto.
