semangat belajar kawan, kali ini
saya akan berbagi sedikit ilmu mengenai tenses.
Tenses? apakah itu tenses?
Tenses adalah bentuk kata kerja dalam bahasa Inggris yang
menunjukkan waktu terjadinya suatu perbuatan atau peristiwa pada masa : sekarang,
masa depan, atau masa lalu. Nah pada artikel ini akan dijelaskan mengenai
simple present tense serta simple past tense
- Simple present tense (I do)
Simple present tense digunakan
untuk menyatakan suatu kejadian atau peristiwa yang terjadi saat ini
(sekarang). Simple present tense juga digunakan untuk menyatakan kejadian yang
terjadi secara berulang misalnya kegiatan sehari-hari, kebiasaan, serta
tradisi.

contoh :
- the earth goes round the sun
(bumi
mengelilingi matahari) => hal yang umum
- I usually go away at the weekends
( saya selalu
bepergian di akhir pekan)
- She walks on the street with her
friends.
(Dia berjalan
di jalan bersama temannya)

Contoh simple present tense
Dina is a chef, but now he is in bed asleep. So he
is not cooking a food.
Rumus simple present tense yaitu
They/we/I/you
|
Drive/Are/am/ do.
|
He/she/it
|
Drives/is/does.
|
Ingat bahwa ketika kita mengatakan: he/she/it don’t forget the –s,
tambahkan akhiran –s atau es pada verb/ kata kerja.
Contoh : He runs..
He works..
It flies..
My sister teaches..
Do/does digunakan untuk membuat pertanyaan serta
kalimat negatif.

Example :

thanks. I don’t smoke.’
·
What does this word mean? (bukan ’
what means this word?’)
·

·

·

Simple present juga digunakan
untuk menyatakan kebiasaan

Simple Past Tense
(I did)
Simple past tense merupakan bentuk kata kerja lampau yang digunakan untuk
menyatakan suatu peristiwa atau kejadian yang telah terjadi pada waktu lampau.
Wolfaging armadeus mozart was an Austrian musician and
composer. He wrote more than 600 fieces of music. He was only 35 years
old when he lived from 1758
to 1791. He started
composing at the age of five and
died.
Lived/started/wrote/was/died are all past simple.

Seringkali simple past tense
berakhiran –ed (regular verb):
·
I work in a travel agency now. Before that I worked in a shop.
·
We invited them to our party but they decided not to come.
·
The police stopped me on my way home last night.
·
She passed her examination because she studied very hard.
Namun banyak irregular verb (kata
kerja tidak beraturan) tidak berakhiran –ed. Contoh :
Write → Wrote - Mozart wrote more than 600 pieces of music.
See →
saw - We saw rose in
town a few days ago.
Go → went - I went to the cinema three times last week.
Shut → shut - it was cold, so I shut the window.
Untuk kalimat pertanyaaan serta
kalimat negatif menggunakan did/didn’t + infinitive
(enjoy/see/go etc.) :
I
She

|

Perhatikan ketika kata kerja
utamanya adalah do ketika dalam kalimat.

·
I didn’t do anything. (not, I didn’t anything)
Bentuk kerja be (am/is/are) is was/were :

|
Was
|
I/he/she/it?
|
|
We/you/they
