indicar donde algo está localizado.

Ejemplos:

• Con un sustantivo:

I am a teacher. (Yo soy un profesor)

You aren’t a student.(Tú no eres un estudiante)
Is he a doctor? (Es él un médico?)

• Con una preposición de lugar:

Is the book on the table? ( Está el libro sobre la mesa?)

• Con un adjetivo:

We are happy. (Nosotros estamos contentos)

He isn’t sad. (Él no está triste)
Are you tired? (Estás cansado?)

• Sirve para expresar la edad, en cuyo caso se traduce por 'tener':

Mary is 20 years old / Maria tiene 20 años

I am 21 / Yo tengo 21 años
How old are you? / ¿Cuántos años tienes?

• Para expresar las sensaciones también se emplea el verbo 'to be' y equivale al 'tener'

Simple Present Tense

cierta frecuencia y no hace referencia a si está ocurriendo en el momento actual.

Examples:

✓ I play tennis. Yo juego al tenis.

A continuación, se muestran las formas afirmativa, interrogativa y negativa de este tiempo verbal:

GRAMMAR STRUCTURE

ENGLISH TEACHER 6
 INGLES IV

En el cuadro superior se ha tomado como ejemplo el verbo LIVE (vivir). Observe que en el modo

He eats vegetables. (Él come vegetales.)

Alice dances at the theatre. (Alice baila en el teatro.)
The dog breaks the fence. (El perro rompe la cerca.)

En el modo interrogativo y negativo se utiliza el auxiliar DO, aunque en la 3º persona del singular se
coloca como auxiliar DOES y se le quita la “S” al verbo.

Reglas para los verbos en tercera persona en singular.

de la terminación “ES”. Por ejemplo:

Si el verbo es STUDY (estudiar) se conjugará: She studies the lesson. Ella estudia la lección.

✓ Si el verbo termina en “E”, se agrega “S”. Por ejemplo.

Si el verbo es DANCE (BAILAR), se conjugará: She dances salsa very well. Ella baila salsa muy bien.

Si el verbo es TAKE (TOMAR), se conjugará: He takes a shower every day. He se ducha todos los días.

❖ Para la forma negativa se puede emplear la forma contraída de DON’T en lugar de DO NOT

Always (siempre)

El adverbio de frecuencia siempre debe de ir entre el sujeto y el verbo.

PRESENT CONTINUOUS TENSE

Uses: El presente continuo se utiliza para describir acciones que se realizan en el mismo instante en que
uno habla. Expresiones de tiempo tales como "now", "right now" and "at the moment" indican el
presente continuo. Ahora explicamos las reglas de gramática de inglés en relación a este tiempo verbal.
Iniciemos prestando atención al siguiente ejemplo:

She is reading a book. (Ella está leyendo un libro.)

Aclárese que el verbo to be (ser/estar) va a depender del sujeto para su conjugación, vale decir que se
seguirá la siguiente regla gramatical. De la misma manera, la formación del verbo a gerundio, tiene reglas
a seguir. Sin embargo, explicaremos las tres más importantes.

Regla 1. Verbos que terminan en vocal “e” , se elimina la “e” final del verbo y se le añade _ing como en
el ejemplo siguiente:

Write-------Writing Take-------------- Taking Dance------------ Dancing

Regla 2. Verbos que terminan en consonante incluyendo “Y”. A este tipo de verbos solamente se añade
la _ing al final. Ejemplos:

Mg. Lucy Romy Ríos Vásquez

ENGLISH TEACHER 15
 INGLES IV
2020-I

Talk--------------Talking Play-------------Playing Review---------Reviewing

Regla 3. Verbos cortos que tienen una sola sílaba y que terminan en consonante-vocal-consonante. Se
duplica la consonante final y se añade _ing para formar el gerundio. Ejemplo:

Stop---------- Stopping Cut----------- Cutting swim --------------- swimming

Con estas tres reglas tenemos ya una base para formar oraciones en presente contínuo aplicando la
estructura principal.
