What is simple present tense?

• Simple present tense is used to describe an action that occurs in the present time.
• For a subject that is singular, we add -s or -es to the root form of the verb to convert it into present tense. Hence, -s is added to make, work and adore.
• For a subject that is plural, the base form of the verb is used. Hence, the verb 'decorate' is used after the plural subject 'Indians'.
