Present simple(I do)

Rule 1:- Present simple
I/ we/ you/they drive/ work/do
he/she/it drives/works/does

Example:-

  1. He drives a bus. वह बस चलाता है।
Rule 2:-We use the present simple to talk about things in general. We use it to say that something happens all the time or repeatedly, or that something is true in general:

Example:-

  1. Nurse look after patients in hospitals. ( नर्स अस्पतालों में मरीजों को देखती हैं। )
  2. I usually go away at weekends. (मैं आमतौर पर सप्ताहांत में दूर जाता हूं। )
  3. The earth goes round the sun. (पृथ्वी सूर्य के चारों ओर घूमती है।)
  4. The cafe opens at 7.30 in the morning. (कैफे सुबह 7.30 बजे खुलता है।)
Rule 3:- We use do/does to make questions and negative sentences:
DoI/ we/ you/theywork?
Doeshe/she/itdrive?
I/ we/ you/theydon'twork?
he/she/itdoesn'tdrive?
  1. I come from Canada. Where do you come from?
  2. I don’t go away very often.
  3. What does these word mean? (not What means this word?)
  4. Rice doesn't grow in cold climates.
In the following examples, do is also the main verb (do you do / doesn’t do etc.):
  1. 'What do you do? 'I work in a shop.' मैं इस समय बहुत अच्छी किताब पढ़ रहा हूं।
  2. He's always so lazy. He doesn’t do anything to help.
Rule 3:- We use the present simple to say how often we do things:
  1. I get up at 8 o’clock every morning
  2. How often do you go to the dentist? 
  3. Julie doesn’t drink tea very often. 
  4. Robert usually goes away two or three times a year.
Rule 4:- Sometimes we do things by saying something. For example, when you promise to do something, you can say ‘I promise … ’; when you suggest something, you can say ‘I suggest … ’:In the same way we say: I apologize… / I advise … / I insist … / I agree … / I refuse …
  1. I promise I won’t be late. (not I’m promising) 
  2. ‘What do you suggest I do?’ ‘I suggest that you …’
