USE:
1. We use the Present Simple for:
regular habits and daily routines;facts, things in general;permanent or long-lasting situations;timetables and schedules.
2. It is used with adverbs like:
- always- often- usually
- …- every day
- never- rarely- sometimes

FORM:
AFFIRMATIVE
1. To form the Present Simple we add –s to the infinitive of the verb in the 3rd person singular (he, she, it)
E.g.: I live He / She / It lives

2. But when the verb ends in:
a) -o, -s, -sh, -ch, -x we add -es
E.g.: I go → he/she/it goesI kiss → he/she/it kissesI wash → he/she/it washesI watch → he/she/it watchesI fix → he/she/it fixes

b) a consonant + -y, the -y changes into -ie and we add -s
E.g.: I study → he/she studies
BUT
a vowel + -y we just add -s
E.g.: I play → he/she plays

INTERROGATIVE and NEGATIVE
To form the interrogative and the negative we need the auxiliary verb to do in the present simple. This means we have to add -es in the 3rd person singular (he, she, it) while the main verb will be used in the infinitive.
INTERROGATIVE NEGATIVE
E.g.: Do you like?
do/does + subject + infinitive
don’t/doesn’t + infinitive
Does he like? She doesn’t like.
E.g.: You don’t like.
