Uses (Usos)
1. The present simple is used to talk about things that usually happen. Unlike
the Spanish, the simple present is not used to talk about something that is
happening at the moment in which we speak.
1. El presente simple se utiliza para hablar de cosas que suceden
habitualmente. A diferencia con el espaol, no se usa el presente simple para
hablar sobre algo que est pasando en el momento en el que hablamos.
You often use the present simple with adverbs of time:
Se suele utilizar el presente simple con adverbios de tiempo:
Always (siempre), every day (cada da), usually (normalmente), often (a
menudo), sometimes (a veces), rarely (raramente), hardly ever (casi nunca),
never (nunca)...

Ejemplos:
I always talk to my mother on Sundays. (Siempre hablo con mi madre los
domingos.)
He never eats vegetables. (Nunca come las verduras.)
They learn something new in class.They usually learn something new in class.
(Normalmente aprenden algo nuevo en la clase.)

Excepcin:
Adverbs of time go before the verb except the verb "to be" (ser / estar). When
"to be" used the verb goes before the adverb.
Los adverbios de tiempo van delante del verbo, excepto el verbo "to be"
(ser/estar). Cuando se usa "to be" el verbo va delante del adverbio.

Ejemplos:
I am always happy. (Siempre estoy contento.)
He is often sick. (A menudo l est enfermo.)
They are rarely late. (En raras ocasiones llegan tarde.)
