Present and Past Simple

O presente e o passado simples nada mais são do que tempos verbais na língua inglesa que se referem a um momento específico de uma linha do tempo sobre o que está sendo falado. Nesse caso, temos palavras no presente, ou seja, ações que ocorrem no momento da fala proferida, e no passado, isto é, ações que começaram e finalizaram no passado.

O passado simples se caracteriza basicamente pela presença de "ed" em verbos regulares, ou seja, verbos que terminam em "ed" estão no passado, além disso temos também o verbo to be no passado com "was" e "were".
