Simple verb tense can be divided into three
categories: past, present, and future.
• Present Tense:
He writes a letter today.
• Past Tense:

Tense refers to the form a verb takes in a sentence,
whether to express the present, past or future.

The past tense indicates that an action is
completed and has already taken place.

in 1963. [an action completed in the past].
As a girl, she wondered how her college degree
would help her career. [an action that occurred
once or many times in the past but did not extend
to the present].

37. Aims
Present
The present tense indicates that an action is
taking place at the time you express it, or an
action that occurs regularly.
Example
We wear organic cotton shirts. [an action
taking place when it is expressed].
I watch the documentary on PBS each
Sunday night. [an action that occurs
regularly].
