Present Simple

n limba englez, spre deosebire de alte limbi, verbul i pstreaz aceeai form, indiferent de
persoana la care este conjugat. Pentru timpul prezent, ns, apare o singur terminaie, un -s final la
persoana a III-a, singular. Mai jos este conjugat verbul to meet la timpul prezent.

I meet

you meet

he/she/it meets

we meet

you meet

they meet

Acelai parcurs l au i verbe ca want, laugh, play, read, write, like, love, hate, etc.

Cteva verbe care fac excepie de la aceast regul sunt to do, care la pers. a III-a, sg., devine he
does, to go he goes, to teach he teaches, to watch he watches, to have, care devine he
has (nu he haves).

Un caz aparte este i can, a crui form la persoana a III-a rmne invariabil: he can (nu he
cans).

Pentru verbe care se termin n y, dar acesta nu e precedat de vocal (ca i to play he plays), ci
de consoan (to fly, to try, to imply, etc.), y devine ies: to fly he flies, to try he tries.

Conjugarea la timpul prezent al verbului neregulat to be se face dup cum urmeaz:

I am

you are

he/she/it is

we are

you are

they are

n cea de-a doua coloan sunt scrise formele prescurtate ale verbului (formate prin elidarea primului
sunet), aa cum apare el de cele mai multe ori n limba vorbit, dar i n text.
eu ntlnesc

tu ntlneti

el/ea ntlnete

noi ntlnim

voi ntlnii

ei/ele ntlnesc
I'm

you're

he's/she's/it's

we're

you're

they're
eu sunt

tu eti

el/ea este

noi suntem

Negative
Pentru a forma forma de negative a unui verb in engleza trebuie adaugat verbul TO
DO intre pronume (I, You, He, She,It, We, You, They) si verbul de conjugat. La
persoana a III a singular verbul de conjugat nu se schimba, ci verbul TO DO sufera
schimbarea obisnuita (He/She/It does not speak).
Regula: Pronume+ DO/DOES NOT+ verb(speak, talk, do, have, cry)
Example
I do not speak
You do not speak
He/she/it does not speak
We do not speak
You do not speak
They do not speak

Exceptia este verbul To Be . Acesta nu foloseste verbul to do, ci primeste doar
negatia NOT dupa verb.
Regula: Pronume+ to be+ not.
Example
I am not
You are not
He/she/it is not
We are not
You are not
They are not
Interrogative
Pentru a forma forma de interogativ a unui verb in engleza trebuie folosit verbul To
Do urmat de pronume si de verbul conjugat. La persoana a III a singular verbul de
conjugat nu se schimba, ci verbul TO DO sufera schimbarea obisnuita (Does
he/she/it speak?)
Regula: DO/DOES +Pronume+ Verb(to speak, see, get, go)
Example
Do I speak?
Do you speak?
Does he/she/it speak?
Do we speak?
Do you speak?
Do they speak?
Exceptia este verbul To Be . Acesta nu foloseste verbul to do, ci se inverseaza
pozitia verbului si a pronumelui.
Regula: To Be +Pronume
Example
Am I?
Are you?
Is he?
Is she?
Is it?
Are we?
Are you?
Are they?
