Past Simple
The simple past tense, sometimes called the preterite, is used to talk about a completed action in a time before now. The simple past is the basic form of past tense in English. The time of the action can be in the recent past or the distant past and action duration is not important.
To form the simple past with regular verbs, we use the infinitive and add the ending "-ed". The form is the same for all people (I, you, he, she, it, we, they).
Example: They learned English// Aprendieron inglés.
Present Simple
Present simple is the tense that is used to refer to events, actions, and conditions that are happening all the time, or exist now.
To conjugate the present simple we use the infinitive for the subjects "I", "you", "we" and "they" and for the third persons "he", "she" and "it", we add a "-s" to the end of the verb.
Example: He never eats vegetables// Él nunca come las verduras.
Future Will
In grammar, the future tense is the verb form you use to talk about things that haven't happened yet.
We normally use 'will' to speak about the future. It is always combined with another verb.
Since 'will' is classified as a modal verb:
*It does not change in the third person (i.e. he, she, it)
*It is always combined with another verb in the base form (i.e. without 'to')
*We don't use it with 'Do' in questions or negatives.
Example: I will be the best dancer in the world.//Seré el mejor bailarín del mundo.
Future Going To
The use of going to refer to future events suggests a very strong association with the present. The time is not important, it is later than now, but the attitude is that the event depends on something in the present situation that we know about. Going is mainly used to refer to our plans and intentions or to make predictions based on present evidence. In everyday speech, going to is often shortened to gonna, especially in American English, but it is never written that way.
When we use going in a phrase to talk about the future, the form is composed of three elements:
The verb to be conjugated to match the subject + going + the infinitive of the main verb.
Example: Is Freddy going to buy a new car soon?//Freddy va a comprar un auto nuevo pronto?
Present Perfect
The present perfect is used to indicate a link between the present and the past. The time of the action is before now but not specified, and we are often more interested in the result than in the action itself.
The present perfect of any verb is composed of two elements : the appropriate form of the auxiliary verb to have (present tense), plus the past participle of the main verb.
Example: They haven't lived here for years.//No han vivido aquí por años.
