Koristimo Present Simple kad govorimo o:

  2. Vozni redovi (planirani događaji s točnim vremenom);
  3. Navike / rutine (nešto što se događa u više navrata u ovom trenutku);
  4. Činjenice (Stvari koje su istinite, navedene);
  5. Stalne situacije (koje se trenutno odvijaju i koje će se dogoditi u budućnosti);

  7. Upute (narudžbe);
  8. Završeni radnje u trenutku kad govorimo (npr. komentare);
  9. Neformalno pripovijest (Kada priča priču).

Koristimo Present Simple za izražavanje radnji koje se događaju redovito, koje se ponavljaju stalno i redovito. Kad ga koristimo u upitnom obliku, koristimo ga za postavljanje pitanja.

Present Simple u upitnom obliku se tvori na slijedeći način:
Auxiliary verb “do” + subject + base form of the verb + question mark (?) (e.g. Does he work on Tuesdays?) (“does“za treće lice jednine).

Npr:
— “Does he work on Tuesdays?” =
— “Do you live in a small flat.” =
— “Does the train leave at 6.” =
— “Does the water boil at 100 degrees Celsius” = .

NOTE: U upitnom obliku kad formiramo Present Simple nikad ne koristimo “do” za treće lice jednine, onda je uvijek “does”.
