present simple - настоящее простое время

даннео действие просиходит регулярно.

пример: я иду в школу каждый день

i go to school every day

действие происходит регулярно!

задаем общий вопрос мы с глагола do

мы ставим его на 1 место:

do i go to school every day? (иду ли я каждый день в школу? )

в специальном вопросе (кто, где, куда, зачем) глагол do также используется и ставится уже после специального вопроса(who why when where)

when do you go to school?

where do you go every day?

и т.д.

но если мы используем вопрос "кто" (who) do не ставится и вместо этого смысловой глагол добавляет к себе частичку "s"

who goes to school every day?

past simple - прошедшее простое

обозначает действите, произошедшее когда-то в прошлом

здесь важно, когда произошло действие (время)

здесь все то же самое, только вместо do используется did:

did i go to school

со спец. вопросами то же самое

present continious - настоящее продолжительное

обозначает действите, которые происходит в какой-то момент в анстоящем и просиходить оно длительно, прямо сейчас:

i am going to school now (я иду в школу сейчас)

для того, чтобы задать вопрос, мы просто переставляем глагол to be (am, is, are) на 1 место:

am i going to school? (иду ли я в школу? )
