1.2 - Presente Simple: Oraciones afirmativas y negativas

Un uso comn para el presente simple es el hablar sobre informacin personal,
por ejemplo, de los trabajos de las personas y donde viven. Generalmente
usamos el presente simple para hablar de hechos (acontecimientos), costumbres o
estados de nimo.

Veamos un ejemplo de cada uno de estos temas:

La gramtica del presente simple estipula que al hablar de terceras personas del
singular (He, She, It) se debe agregar una "-s" "-es" al final del
verbo (dependiendo el caso) para oraciones afirmativas.
Oraciones afirmativas de presente simple:

Reglas para verbos conjugados con terceras personas de presente simple

Existen 4 reglas que se deben cumplir para el caso de los verbos conjugados
con terceras personas del singular, es decir, en caso de agregar "-s" o "-es".
Estas reglas estn determinadas teniendo en cuenta la terminacin del verbo.
Todos los verbos aqu mostrados pueden encontrarse en el curso de ingls bsico.
1) Verbos en general - Es comn que cualquier verbo que no tenga en cuenta las
caractersticas posteriores, solamente se agregue una "-s" al final del verbo:
Work / Works (trabajar)
Know / Knows (saber)
Speak / Speaks (hablar)
2) Terminacion del verbo en "-ch, -sh, -x -ss" - Con este tipo de verbos
simplemente se debe agregar "-es" al final:
catch / catches
wash / washes
mix / mixes
miss / misses

(atrapar)
(lavar)
(mezclar)
(extraar, perder)

3) Terminacin del verbo en "consonante + y" - En este caso hay que cambiar
la "y" por "i" y agregar "es":

Study / Studies
Try / Tries
Fry / Fries

(Estudiar)
(Intentar)
(Freir)

4) Verbos con forma especial:

go / goes (ir)
do / does (hacer)
have / has (tener)
Ejemplos de presente simple en oraciones afirmativas:
I work on saturdays
He has a nice computer
My dad works near here
They like the good music
Peter washes his car every week
Clara and Gabriel have a pet
Hugo loves his job
My parents and I live in Mexico

(Trabajo los sbados)

(l tiene una bonita computadora)
(Mi papa trabaja cerca de aqu)
(A ellos les gusta la buena msica)
(Pedro lava su carro cada semana)
(Clara y Gabriel tienen una mascota)
(Hugo ama su trabajo)
(Mis padres y yo vivimos en Mxico)

En estos ejemplos se han puesto en cursiva los verbos de cada oracin para
demostrar cmo es que cambia dependiendo de si el sujeto es una tercera
persona no lo es. Por otro lado para formar oraciones negativas usamos los
verbos auxiliares "do" "does" + not. "Does" solo con las terceras personas:
Oraciones negativas de presente simple:

Las contracciones "don't" y "doesn't" son muy ampliamente usadas al hablar

en ingls, de hecho, es ms comn que se escuche hablar a las personas con
estas contracciones en vez de usar las dos palabras de cada una.
Ntese que con oraciones negativas no hay cambio en el verbo aunque estn
en tercera persona, esto nicamente es para las oraciones afirmativas.

A continuacin se muestran los ejemplos que se vieron en la seccin anterior pero

en su modo negativo.
Ejemplos de presente simple en oraciones negativas:

Ya hemos visto en otras lecciones cmo se construyen frases en el
tiempo verbal presente simple o "simple present".

Forma afirmativa de las oraciones:

La frmula simple para construir frases sencillas es:

Pronombre + verbo en presente:

I am.

You work.

He reads.

We study.

You are.

They eat.

Ahora, podemos formar oraciones un poquito ms complejas agregando

algunas preposiciones y sustantivos as:

Pronombre + verbo en presente + preposicin +

(artculo) sustantivo:

Ejemplos:

I am a girl = yo soy una nia.

You work in an office = t trabajas en una oficina.
He reads a book = l lee un libro.
We study at the university = nosotros estudiamos en la
universidad.
You are cousins = ustedes son primos.
They eat hamburguers = ellos comenhamburguesas.

Cmo se conjugan los verbos de forma afirmativa?

I work in an office = yo trabajo en una oficina.
You work in an office = t trabajas en una oficina.
He/she works in an office = l/ella trabaja en una oficina.
We work in an office = nosotros trabajamos en una oficina.
You work in an office = ustedes trabajan en una oficina.

They work in an office = ellos/ellas trabajan en una oficina.

Forma negativa de las oraciones:

La forma negativa del "simple present" se obtiene
agregando "dont" o "doesnt" antes de la forma base del verbo:
I dont work = yo no trabajo.
You dont work = t no trabajas.
He doesnt work = l no trabaja.
She doesnt work = ella no trabaja.
It doesnt work = eso no trabaja.
We dont work = nosotros no trabajamos.
You dont work = ustedes no trabajan.
They dont work = ellos/ellas no trabajan.

Importante...
Como puedes ver, slo los pronombres de la tercera persona singular "he,
she, it" son seguidos por "doesnt", para todos los dems se usa "dont".

Forma interrogativa de las oraciones:

La forma interrogativa del "simple present" se obtiene con el
auxiliar "do" o "does" delante del sujeto.
Do I work? = yo trabajo?
Do you work? = t trabajas?
Does he work? = l trabaja?
Does she work? = ella trabaja?
Does it work? = eso trabaja?
Do we work? = nosotros trabajamos?
Do you work? = ustedes trabajan?
Do they work? = ellos/ellas trabajan?

El Present Simple en ingles -The Simple Present tense

Negative form
The structure of the negative structure is formed by adding the auxiliaries do or does plus the negation not
Do + not > dont
Does + not > doesnt
These auxiliaries are used TO HELP you. When you use the auxiliary the verb is always in its simple.
Remember:
In positive we had 2 conjugations for every verb (not to be)
play/plays , work/works, study/studies, watch/watches, etc
The conjugation is simple: HE / SHE / IT - with the s form and I / WE / YOU / THEY - simple form

Examples:
My brother works for IBM.
My parents live in Paris.
IN THE NEGATIVE FORM THE AUXILIARY CHANGES FORM AND NOT THE VERB.
He / she / it + doesnt + verb (simple form)
I / We / You / They + dont + verb (simple form)
Figura #1:

Lets Practice

Nota del profesor:Como vemos, lo que se conjuga en la forma negativa es el auxiliar y no el verbo. Es
decir, uno va elejir entre dont y el doesnt pero el verbo SIEMPRE estara en su forma simple (sin la
terminacin s)

Question form
The question structure is formed by following the following structure
Question word + [do / does + SUBJECT + Verb (simple form)] + Complement
We use the auxiliaries do and does in the question form and they have to agree with the subject
The conjugation is the following:
Does > he/she/it
Do -> I/we/you/they
The verb ALWAYS stays in the simple form (not with the s form)

Short Answers
Las respuestas cortas son con los auxiliares do y does con la forma positiva y dont y doesnt con la forma
negativa. La respuesta corta se refiere a cuando responde solo si o no.

Do you study English for free in InglesTotal? -> Yes, I do

Yes, (I, you, we, you, they) do. No, ( (I, you, we, you, they) dont.
Yes, (he,she,it does)- No, (he,she,it )doesnt
Figura #2

Figura #3

Lets Practice

Conclusion:
The auxiliaries appear in the negative and question form with the verbs that are not to be.
Example:
(+) Juan plays soccer.
(-) He doesnt play soccer.
(?) Does he play soccer?
*VERB TO BE (NO AUXILIARIES!!!)
(+) She is a teacher
(-) She isnt a teacher.
(?) Is she a teacher?
Nota: Recuerden que cuando usen el verbo to be (es decir cualquier conjugacion de ser o estar en el
presente) no se usan los auxiliares puesto que estos se usan solo con los demas verbos y en negativo y
en pregunta)

(3) Interrogative Sentences (Frases

interrogativas)

Ya sabiendo como se forma en el presente simple la forma afirmativa y la forma

negativa, ser de gran ayuda y nos facilitar el entendimiento de la forma interrogativa.

Para forma una oracin interrogativa o una pregunta, debemos tener en cuenta de
nuevo el verbo auxiliar (DO). Pero esta vez no va ir negando, si no simplemente va a
acompaar para poder hacer la pregunta. En este caso tambin se tiene en cuenta
que para la terceras personas el verbo auxiliar lleva la s, osea que queda DOES.

La forma de hacer una pregunta en en forma interrogativa es poniendo el verbo

auxiliar antes del pronombre y ya, el resto de la oracin queda como en la forma
afirmativa. y se contesta son verbo auxiliar en forma positiva y negativa.

Ejemplo:

Do you eat hamburges?

yes, I do
no, I dont

Do we cook together?

yes, You do

no, You don't

Does she arrive at 8 a.m.?

yes, She does

no, She doesnt

Does he write?

yes, He does
no,

He doesnt

NOTA: Fijate bien!! En las terceras personas el verbo no lleva la s ya que el verbo
auxiliar ya la tiene, nunca olvides esto, y veras que no tendrs problemas!!

Cuando haces una pregunta con las WH Question, utilizas la misma regla, pero
recuerda que el auxiliar debe ir solo antes de pronombre, en ningun otro lado.

ejemplo:

Where do you live?

Donde vives?

Who do you work with?

Con quien trabajas?

What do you look like?

Como eres? (fisicamente)

What does she eat?

Que come (ella)?

Where does he live?

Donde vive (el)?

Pregunta que te puede confundir:

What do you do? Que haces (tu)?

Tenga en cuenta que el do que aparece antes del pronombre es tomado como verbo
auxiliar y el que aparece luego del pronombre si es tomado como verbo, entonces solo
debemos darle significado al segundo verbo, no al primero (Ya que este es el auxiliar).

Ejemplos:

Do you talk? (Hablas t?)

Does he eat? (Come l?)

Do they learn? (Aprenden ellos?)

1.
EstructuraVerbo auxiliar ("to do") + sujeto + verbo principal?
Nota: Como en frases negativas, en frases interrogativas el verbo auxiliar ("to do")
cambia y el verbo principal es en el infinitivo.

I've got a pen
You've got a pen

Cuidado
No se puede usar la forma contrada con have pero s con have got.
Ive got two sisters OK
I have two sisters OK
Ive two sisters X
Utilizamos tanto have got como have en el sentido del verbo "tener" en espaol
para:
Hablar de cosas que poseemos

usa nicamente to have.

de la maana)
Peter has a shower before going to work (Peter se ducha antes de ir a trabajar)
Sarah always takes a bath after work (Sara siempre se da un bao despus de
trabajar)
Excepciones!
Con la edad y las palabras hambre, sed, fro y sueo no utilizamos ni have
got ni have, sino el verbo to be.
Tengo 20 aos I am twenty years-old
El beb tiene hambre The baby is hungry
Tenemos sed We are thirsty

Los nios tienen fro The kids are cold

Tienes sueo? Are you sleepy?

Para indicar obligacin ("tener que") utilizamos normalmente have to (vase have
to), aunque tambin podemos utilizar have got to en afirmativas.
I have to clean the house (tengo que limpiar la casa)
I don't have to clean the house (no tengo que limpiar la casa)
Do you have to clean the house? (Tienes que limpiar la casa?)
I've got to go (me tengo que ir)

John: You should get in touch. Its great to have a sense of ones family tree "Deberas ponerte en

My mi
Your (singular) tu, su
His su (de l)
Her su (de ella)
Its su (de eso)
Our nuestro/a
Your (plural) su (tambin vuestro/a para los Espaoles)

El ingls tiene una forma distinta para especificar a quin le pertenece algo sin usar el
adjetivo posesivo; por ejemplo el carro de Pedro, 'el vestido de mi hermana, etc.
Veamos las reglas que se aplican a este uso con algunos ejemplos ilustrativos:
1. La regla general para formar el posesivo de un sustantivo es aadir un apstrofe
+ s al final del sustantivo, de la siguiente manera:

My brothers house is in Newark La casa de mi hermano est en Newark

John and Karens wedding La boda de John y Karen
Richards BMW is black El BMW de Richard es negro
Sallys cat is lost El gato de Sally est perdido
The peoples opinion is important La opinin del pueblo es importante

2. Si el sustantivo termina en s (por ejemplo si est en plural), slo se aade el

apstrofe al final del sustantivo, de la siguiente manera:
Thomas parents are very nice Los padres de Thomas son muy amables
The glass shape is very pretty La forma del vaso es muy bonita
The babies toys are in the box Los juguetes de los bebs estn en la caja
Carlos friends have no money Los amigos de Carlos no tienen dinero

Para indicar a quien pertenece algo usamos 's.

Si quieres usar el posesivo ('s) con una palabra plural, tienes que
poner un apstrofe despus de la s que hace que la palabra sea
plural.
