The present simple tense is often used in Spanish in the same way as it is in English, although there are some differences
All Spanish verbs fall into one of just three categories when it comes to their endings in the infinitive: Those that end in -AR, like bailar (to dance), Verbs that end in -ER, such as comer (to eat), Verbs ending in -IR, as in vivir (to live)
To make the present tense in Spanish
Use the root (stem) of the word and then add on the appropriate ending, according to the subject and verb type (-AR/-ER/-IR)
Root or stem of the verb
