A. Simple present tense is a verb form to state the facts, habits, or events
that occur at this time. The verb form is most commonly used in the English
language. Simple present tense is formed from the verb-1 (present tense) or
linking verb "be" (is, am, are). What is the verb-1? Verb-1 is a bare
infinitive with additional -s or -es (eg verb-1: does, goes, wants)
specifically for subjectberupa singular noun (singular noun: Tita, book, car)
or the third person singular pronoun (the pronoun The third single: she, he,
it); or without modification (eg verb-1: do, go, want) to the subject in the
form of a plural noun (boys, men, books) or plural pronouns (we, they), pronoun
I / you, or a compound subject (you and me, Tina and Ruth).

C). Simple past tense is a form of the verb
used to express activities or events that do or occurred in the past. The past
can be a long time ago, a few years ago, a few months ago, a couple of weeks,
days, or even a few hours ago. As was mentioned above that in the simple past
tense, change the verbs used are changes in the second form of the verb
(verb2). In general, changes in the form of both verbs are always followed by
the suffix "ed", changes in general is called the regular verb.
However, in practice, not all the changes both verb followed by the suffix
"ed", this is called irregular verb. So you have to be really careful
to distinguish where the verb is classified as a regular verb (irregular verbs)
and where the verb is classified as an irregular verb (irregular verb).

terms of number, namely: singular (singular) or plural (plural). Subjects can
be either a noun (noun), pronoun (pronoun), or other construction acting as a
noun, like gerund and infinitive. Basically, the singular subject (single
subject) use the singular verb (singular verb), while plural subject (subject
plural) using a plural verb (verb plural).

3). What is
pronoun? Find the kinds of pronoun!!
What is a
Pronoun?
In grammar,
a pronoun is defined as a word or phrase that may be substituted for a noun or
noun phrase, which once replaced, is known as the pronoun’s antecedent. How is
this possible? In a nutshell, it’s because pronouns can do everything that
nouns can do. A pronoun can act as a subject, direct object, indirect object,
object of the preposition, and more.
Without
pronouns, we’d have to keep on repeating nouns, and that would make our speech
and writing repetitive, not to mention cumbersome. Most pronouns are very short
words. Examples include:
ü He
ü She
ü They
ü It
ü We
ü Who
Examples of
Pronouns
In the
following examples, the pronouns are italicized.
Ø We are going on vacation.
Ø Don’t tell me that you can’t go with
us.
Ø Anybody who says it won’t be fun has
no clue what they are talking about.
Ø These are terribly steep stairs.
Ø We ran into each other at the mall.
