Guía no. 1 SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE

El presente simple se usa para hablar de hábitos

No es para hablar de lo que estamos haciendo ahora mismo – para eso tenemos el presente
compuesto o progresivo
El presente simple habla de acciones repetidas: hábitos, frecuencias, cosas que hacemos todos los
días o un par de veces por semana.

Así, este texto habla de mi rutina diaria aquí en Madrid, y usa muchos ejemplos del presente simple.

My daily routine – mi rutina diaria

I usually wake up at 7 or 8 in the morning.


I don’t have an alarm, because I make my own schedule. A lot of days, I just wake
up when the sun rises.
I get up, drink a glass of water, and put some coffee on the stove.
While I have my coffee, I do some reading. I read the news online, or a book.
Sometimes I listen to a podcast instead of reading. .
I don’t usually have breakfast.
When I finish my coffee, I walk down to my office. I work in a coworking space near
Torre Picasso, in Madrid.
I spend the mornings writing new articles, working on books, and answering emails.
At the end of the month, I do accounting. Accounting takes a lot of time.
At around 2 o’clock I leave the office and go home for lunch. I usually cook something
easy and high in protein.
After lunch, I read or I have a nap. I usually take a walk around the neighborhood in
the afternoon. I sometimes write for my personal blog before dinner.
At night, I go out for dinner or stay in and relax. I usually try to get to bed early –
there’s always more to do tomorrow!
I work out two or three times a week, and on Saturdays I do with some friends in
Retiro park.
On weekends, I hang out with my friends and my girlfriend.
I travel around Spain or Europe when I can. My last trip was to Tenerife, in the
Canary Islands.

específico del pasado.
