The Present Simple
Hoe kun je de "present simple" herkennen?

In een zin weet je of het een feit of routine is door naar signaalwoorden te kijken.
Woorden als every day (alledaags), never (nooit), always (altijd), every Wednesday (elke woensdag) vertellen je dat het over een routine gaat. Het komt vaak voor.

Als er geen signaalwoorden zijn, vertelt de zin u een feit.
