Introduction
Introducción
This is the most common verb tense. The present tense is used to express:
• actions currently happening,
• actions happening in the near future,
• general truths,
• and habitual actions.
Because English so often uses helping verbs such as "am" and "do", the Spanish present tense can be seen as simpler.
For example, the phrase yo escucho (first-person present) can be translated as:
I listen.
I am listening.
I do listen.
• actions currently happening,
• actions happening in the near future,
• general truths,
