SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE

Saat ini kami mengerjakan test biologi Bab Bakteri. Saat ini kami berpura-pura serius mengerjakannya karena ada kamera. Saat ini... Saat ini... Saat ini.... :D bicara tentang saat ini ya itulah present tense, apa yang dia lakukan saat itu juga. Selengkapnya, Check it out!
Simple present tense is the sentence that use to express an action is repeated or usual. The action can be a habit, a hobby, a daily event, a schedule event or something that often happens.

There two kinds of simple present tense :

1. NOMINAL SENTENCE
(simple present tense without verb)
Formula :
(+) S + Tobe + Adj/Noun/Adv
(-) S + Tobe + not + Adj/Noun/Adv
(?) Tobe + S + Adj/Noun/Adv ?

Example :

(+) They are tired
(-) They are not tired
(?) Are they tired ?

(+) I am sick
(-) I am not sick
(?) Am I sick ?

(+) She is a teacher
(-) She is not a teacher
(?) Is she a teacher ?

2. VERBAL
(simple present tense with verb)
Formula :
(+) S + V1 (s/es) + O/C
(-) S + do/does + not + V1 + O/C
(?) Do/does + S + V1 + O/C ?

There are three important note:
1. For the 3 rd person singular (she, he, it) we add “s” or “es” to the main verb (only for positive tense).
With most verb, the 3 rd person singular form is created simply by adding – S. However, with some verb, you need to add –ES change the ending a little.
Here are the rules :
Verb ending in ... How to make the 3 rd person singular Example
s Add -ES He passes
z Add -ES She apologizes
sh Add -ES She wishes
ch Add -ES He watches
Consonant + y Change Y to I, then add -ES It flies
2. For positive sentences, we do not normally use the auxiliary.
3. For the verb tobe, we do not use an auxiliary, even for question and negative sentences.

Example :

(+) Amir writes short story
(-) Amir does not write short story
(?) Does Amir write short story?

(+) Yunita, Riana, Sharon, and Dhea study together
(-) They do not study together
(?) Do they study together?

(+) Mola and I play tennis every afternoon
(-) We do not play tennis every afternoon
(?) Do we play tennis every afternoon ?

- Usually
- Often

APPOINTMENT

Appointment, apa sih itu?
Ada yang bilang appointment itu adalah sebuah perjanjian? Bener gak sih? Yuk mari kita selidiki .. :D

Appointment is to tell us or someone that you will definitely do something.

Making Appointment
-Can I see you at 11 A.M.?
-Will it be convenient if I come at 3 P.M.?
-I’d like you to help me decorate my new kitchen.Would tomorrow be possible?

Approving Appointment
-Sure. That will be fine.
-Great, it’s a perfect time.
-All right, see you there.

Canceling Appointment
-I’m sorry, but I can’t do it.
-I’m afraid not.

Example of appointment:
-I'd like to make an appointment with ...
-I want to make an appointment to see ..
-Can I come and see you?

Nah, itu lah yang dinamakan appointment. Kalau dalam kamus Bahasa Indonesia adalah sebuah perjanjian dimana seseorang ingin bertemu dengan orang lain dalam suatu pertemuan. Sebelum ketemu kan memang harus bikin janji dulu dimana tempat dan waktunya. Sekian postingan sampai disini. Kurang lebihnya saya mohon maaf dan terima kasih. Good bye! :)
