INTRODUCTION :
Simple Present (Present Simple) – Introduction Simple present is also called present simple.The simple present expresses an action in the present taking place once, never or several times. It is also used for actions that take place one after another and for actions that are set by a timetable or schedule. The simple present also expresses facts in the present.
TYPES OF PRESENT TENSE:
SIMPLE PRESENT:
The simple present tense is the one which we use when an action is happening right now, or when it happens regularly (or unceasingly, which is why it's sometimes called present indefinite). The simple present tense is formed by using the root form or by adding ‑s or ‑es to the end, depending on the person.

Two elements are required to form thepassé composé: a helping verb (either avoir or être) and a past participle (usually the ‐ed form of an English verb).

The passé simple is a literary past tense, most often used in writing, and also refers to an action or event that was completed in the past. The passé anterieur,which is very limited in use, is the compound form of the passé simple. (The passé simple of the correct helping verb is followed by the past participle of the verb indicating the action.)

Depending on how we form the past tense, it might describe actions that happened or were completed in the past, were occurring at the same time as something else in the past, or continued to happen until or near the present time.
