🚩 Action Words: Present Simple

In this text, we see how to talk about things that are happening now or are generally true. We use a simple form of the verb.

1. The 'S' Rule (One Person/Thing) When one person or group does something, we add -s to the action word:

  • The EU wants → (The EU = one group)
  • Russia says → (Russia = one country)
  • Ukraine uses → (Ukraine = one country)

2. No 'S' (Many People/Things) When there are many people, the action word stays basic:

  • They have new rules.
  • Other leaders make decisions.

3. The 'Special' Case Some words change completely:

  • Stop \rightarrow Stopped (This happened in the past, like in Bulgaria).

Quick List for your notebook:

  • Stop \rightarrow stop someone from doing something
  • Visit \rightarrow go to see a place/person
  • Ask \rightarrow say you want help
