The document discusses the simple present and past tenses in English. It provides rules for forming regular and irregular verbs in both tenses. For the simple present, it explains how the base form or adding -s denotes actions that occur regularly or facts. For the simple past, it describes how adding -ed/-d denotes completed past actions and provides spelling rules for different verb types. Examples are given to illustrate the usage of both tenses. An exercise at the end asks the reader to practice converting verbs into the simple past or present form based on contexts.
