    Learn English: to be in present simple


     


    Mira: Hello friends, today we will take our first lesson!

              We will learn how to use the auxiliary to be in the present simple!

               And some new words too. I'm just waiting for Anks to begin ....

    Anks: Hi Mira!
    Mira: Hi Anks! How are you?

    Anks: Fine thanks, what about you?

    Mira: I am fine, and so excited to take our first lesson!! 

    Anks: Ok, so let's go.

    Mira: yes!!

    Anks: Which lesson will we take?

    Mira: The present simple of the auxiliary 'to Be',

     we need the verb to be to talk about ourselves and things.

    Anks: Yes, we use single pronouns:

                IYouHeShe and it for single,  
                and plural pronouns: We,
     You and They for plural.

     

     For example:  we can say                   Yes, we can also say:

            
     I am a girl, I am happy,
     I am busy       I'm a boy    I'm sorry    I'm brave

      
    You are clever  You are handsome  You are lazy You are crazy

     

     
    Or: You're sad  You're beautiful   You're pretty   You're ugly

                              


    He is nice   He is good     He's funny     He's sick

      
    She is small  She is angry     She's hungry    She's lucky


    It is a flower.       Or   It's a flower         
    We also use 'It' for an object or a thing or an animal.

     
    We are together   We are sweet     We're cute        We're helpful.


    They are friends   Or    They're children
              We use 'They' for objects or things or animals also

    Anks: I think  that's all. We finished our first lesson.

    Mira: Yes we did, but our friends have to take notes,
    and this is a new words list, keep these words in mind,
    we will use them soon, and I will ask you about them.

     Anks: They will do, me too I will do.

    Mira: Good, now I leave, I have to revise my lesson.

    Anks: Me too! Good bye Mira.

    Mira: Good bye Anks.

     

    Mira & Anks: Good bye friends, see you next time to have
    another lesson, 
    enjoy learning English with us!
