Simple Present Present Progressive

Use the simple present to show actions,
events, or states that are true in general or
happen habitually.
We also use the simple present to narrate
events in sequence.

or events in progress at the moment (not
finished).
BE CAREFUL! We generally don’t use the
progressive with non-action verbs.

My dad never forgets to make my
brake fast..

take a bath

The present perfect and the present perfect progressive connect the past with the present.
Use them to show actions and states that began in the past and continue until now.
They are often used with for + a length of time and since + a starting point.
Use the present perfect, not the present
perfect progressive, to describe completed
actions with a connection to the present.

sentences with before or after. The simple

another past event.

Not expected just happened I was with the obsession to having another dog of the same race from the other one so they could play together and have puppies in the future, and I imagined everything the color of the dog, I had t-shirts for him and all the things they need, so my sister went to buy it and when she came the dog was so cute it was brown with black eyes and the clothes fit him perfectly. We took him to the veterinarian to check if everything was ok and when she came out with my dog she told us your German shepherd is healthy, I asked her why she told us it was a German Pastor and not a Chow Chow, she show us and I was shocked how to think of going to explain to my parents that we bought a different dog. At the end we sold the little dog and we bought one from the same race my parents were mad but we fixed it and at the end we learned that we should verify first before buying something.
